Is Sitecore restrict number of content authors based on license ?
Yes, Sitecore restrict number of content authors based on license.
What is the number of concurrent users are allowed as per my license ?
- Open the license.xml file
- Search for ‘SiteCore.EditorUser’
- Check what is <count> element number.
- You get to know number of concurrent user allowed by Sitecore
Is it possible to judge the CMS performance based on number of users login and work ?
No, it depends on the number of actions that are performed on CM by authors.
It is difficult to estimate the load on CM created by a user/author, and there is no way to tell if the infrastructure is sufficient for a specific amount of users.
For 20 concurrent users what is approximate configuration recommended in Azure PaaS
I would recommend to use P3V2 instance with 100 DTU should be enough for 20 concurrent users.
