I'm curious what DotNetNuke Corp's position is on the use of DNN and eCommerce.   Is this platform inherently "not eCommerce friendly"?  

I was shocked to learn that the former DotNetNuke market place didn't even use DNN and ASPDNSF ML/DNN.   I heard that Snowcovered uses DNN and it seems to be a fairly highly trafficked website and works reasonably well.   Does Snowcovered use DNN?   If so, is it PCI compliant?   Maybe some general guidance on the topic could be provided if Snowcovered is indeed PCI compliant.

Are there any official guidelines/recommendations on this subject?   I can see that DNN wouldn't be for a large store (ie Target, Walmart or Amazon), but what size does it work for (ie <100 products, fewer than 50 concurrent shoppers etc)?

Size doesn't matter. # of products is just some number of records in a table in a database and a cart should be able to display any product because it's as simple as doing a select in a table(s).

 

As for # of users it's a factor of the server's speed. Web server and database. The faster the servers are, the more concurrent users they can handle assuming the cart software and database are designed properly. No memory leaks, table locks, uses good caching... etc.
