    We are converting network sites in a multisite as independent woocommerce shops (local grocery stores). Multivendor does not work for our use-case.

    We envisage that there might be thousands of such network sites. Right now, we are hosting this multisite on a single AWS Lightsail instance. Once the data grows, this architecture is unscalable.

    WordPress.com claims to have 500million tables. How are they able to manage this feat? I can imagine that they are not hosting this all on a single physical server.

    I am a tech novice, but am curious to know pointers to the amazing feat by WordPress.com, can you please help?

    Are you expecting 500 million tables? It seems like multisite might not be able to hold up as well, and you will have to create independent instances instead.
