#### **Q: Is Open WebUI scalable for large organizations or enterprise deployments?**
**A:** Yes—**Open WebUI is architected for massive scalability and production readiness.** Its already trusted in deployments supporting extremely high user counts—**think tens or even hundreds of thousands of seats**—used by universities, multinational enterprises, and major organizations worldwide.
Open WebUIs stateless, container-first architecture means youre never bottlenecked by a single server. Through horizontal scaling, flexible storage backends, externalized authentication and database support, and full container orchestration compatibility (for example, Kubernetes or Docker Swarm), you can build robust, high-availability clusters to meet even the most demanding enterprise requirements.
With the right infrastructure configuration, Open WebUI will effortlessly scale from pilot projects to mission-critical worldwide rollouts.
#### **Q: How can I deploy Open WebUI in a highly available, large-scale production environment?**
**A:** For organizations with demanding uptime and scale requirements, Open WebUI is designed to plug into modern production environments:
- **Multiple containers** (instances) behind a load balancer for resilience and optimal performance
- **External databases and persistent storage** for scalable, reliable data
- **Integration with enterprise authentication** (like SSO/OIDC/LDAP) for seamless and secure login
- **Observability and monitoring** via modern log/metrics tools
If youre planning a high-availability, enterprise-grade deployment, we recommend reviewing this excellent community resource:

*(This provides a strong technical overview and best practices for large-scale Open WebUI architecture.)*
Open WebUI is designed from day one to not just handle, but thrive at scale—serving large organizations, universities, and enterprises worldwide.
