I have a mediasoup server for ~300 devices(only audio broadcast 1 =\> many).  
Will my server be overloaded when all 300 audio devices are up and running?  
Is there any solution for load balancing or fail over(backup server)?  
Thanks.

hey @quangnv1311 you need to do your own strategy in terms of scaling, mediasoup provides you the APIs but you need to come up with the strategy that fits your app the best.
