Offline first applications, syncing with PouchDB & CouchDB by François Gengler

How to build offline-capable web or mobile applications, with automatic synchronization with back-end servers. During this presentation, the use of PouchDB combined with a CouchDB-compatible server will be elaborated. We will see how this sync works, its limitations, and how we can use it to build offline applications.

if we have this sort of setup. So consider I have multiple users who are offline at the same time. So when all of them come online together we might face server load when the sync happens from pouch DB to CouchDB. Can you please help me with a solution?
