Performance and Scalability 

The App has been built to remain robust and stable at all times.  The success of the product exports will depend on the various retailer and marketplace scalability constraints and the type of data mapping and transformation you plan on creating.

It's important to note that if the catalogs you wish to syndicate with retailers and marketplaces are in the magnitude of hundreds of thousands of products, we strongly advise validating your use case with our Akeneo Product Team before proceeding with the exports. 
Our team will work closely with you to ensure that the Akeneo Activation App can effectively handle your larger catalog's specific requirements. By engaging with our product team, you can gain valuable insights and guidance to determine the best approach for integrating the Akeneo App with your high-volume catalog.
