Pages open almost instantly
With 20,000 students online together, 95 of every 100 pages opened within 0.02 seconds. A blink of an eye takes longer.
Intelversity · proof of performance
Built to stay fast when every student logs in at once.
We tested Intelversity with 20,000 students using it at the same moment, kept them on it for more than four hours, and switched off parts of it on purpose to see what students would notice. Here is what happened, in plain words.
Nothing failed
3.7 million student actions in two separate tests, and not one of them failed.
Just as fast at the end
20,000 students stayed on it for 4 hours 15 minutes. It was as fast in the last hour as in the first.
Keeps going when parts break
We switched off parts of the system during the test. Students saw at most one slow minute each time, and nothing was lost.

What if something breaks?
Every important part has a standby copy in a separate data centre in Mumbai. With 20,000 students online, we switched parts off on purpose.
A quarter of the servers switched off
Students noticedNothing at all.

Your data is protected
Kept in India
Servers, databases and backups run in Mumbai.
Only yours
Each university gets its own separate system and its own database.
Encrypted
Data is encrypted when it is stored and when it travels.
Backed up every night
Nightly copies go to locked storage that no one can change or delete for 30 days.*
Safe sign-in
Two-step sign-in, and an account locks after repeated wrong passwords.
Ready for India's privacy law
Prepared for the DPDP Act: consent for each purpose, Aadhaar numbers never stored, and a record of who did what.
* On our largest live system today.

What we have not tested yet
We would rather tell you now than have you find out later.
50,000 students at once
Our estimate says it works with bigger servers. We will test it before a university of that size goes live.
Thousands starting one exam in the same minute
Tested with 300 students so far, and every answer was saved exactly once. We test at your size before your first big exam.
A big rush with no warning
Before known busy moments, such as exams and results, we start extra servers ahead of time. A big rush with no warning has not been tested.
Logins in a sudden rush
When 19,000 students logged in within one minute, 95 of every 100 logins finished within 6.5 seconds; our goal is 2. Pages stayed fast. A dedicated login service is built, and its test is next.
How we tested
We wrote the pass marks first
Before any test ran, we wrote down what passing means. For example, 95 of every 100 pages must open within half a second, and fewer than 1 in 1,000 actions may fail. We never changed them afterwards.
We created 20,000 test students
Each with a login, courses and a semester of history. No real student's data was used.
We recorded every minute
Three separate machines acted as the students. Every minute was measured, and all the records are kept.
See it with your own eyes
We can run any of these tests again with your team watching.
