Learning Management System website

Has anyone created a LMS using DW? I use a CMS that has a LMS component, but have never used it. I wish Captivate were part of the Creative Cloud so I could at least be familiar with its capabilities.

I have a hard time imagining what sort of bandwidth you would need for 10,000 people all playing educational videos on a website.

If you use scalable web services from Amazon, that should never be a problem.

Isn't that hosting on a Virtual Private Server just like everywhere else?

[Nancy OShea]

AWS is not everywhere else .  But like most hosts, they have different plans for different types of users

Web Hosting - Amazon Web Services (AWS)

I have a reseller website and only the VPS is scalable, I think. But I will not use anything except Linux with cPanel.

[paulk7737514]

Are you a AWS hosting reseller? Or does that exist?

[Nancy OShea]

I'm not an any hosting resller.  That's not my thing.  But I use AWS's EC2 and cloud data storage because it's scalable & much much more cost effective than anything I compared it against.

What's wrong with a little residual income?

[Nancy OShea]

Fixing people's hosting woes is not on my list of favorite things to do.  Besides there's not enough income there to keep me motivated.

I've never had to do that, I use the reseller site for the convenience. I don't have to keep up with billing for hosting or domain names and the client feels in control of their products in their secure account.

So have you done a LMS website? I'd be interested in learning about your approach.
