Launch of the Ovi Store - a complete disaster
As it is known, today in seven countries of the world, including Russia, the online store Nokia Ovi Store has opened , which has a global mission to compete with the App Store. However, the first day of the Ovi Store turned into a real disaster .
No matter how Nokia prepared for increased load, no matter how it duplicated the servers, no matter how they studied the App Store experience, nothing helped. Using the site is almost impossible. It either does not boot at all, or it still works with the toughest brakes. And that is not all. In the Ovi Store catalog, products disappear and appear suddenly - for no reason. At best, links to them remain on the site.
Immediately after the official launch at 2:00 ET, the servers began to experience “extraordinarily high traffic spikes that led to performance problems,” says a crisis message from the Ovi Store engineers. Experts immediately began to add additional servers to the cluster, which somewhat improved the situation, but the site is still very slow.

In the aforementioned “crisis message,” Nokia emphasizes that problems are observed only on the website, and all mobile clients from phones allegedly normally load information and walk around the store without slowing down.
