Consider the complexity of the Obama website, Ten. I agree it was poorly designed, and should have allowed people to LOOK at the insurance options in their state without their identities being verified. Identity and fact verification should have occurred when the people went to buy insurance. The testing and especially load testing ( I read they can handle 50k apps at one time! By DESIGN! ) and the requirements were ridiculous, and should have someone's head rolling. To verify my identity, the website has to connect with God knows what kind of systems at the SS admin and IRS, and who knows what others? How overloaded with queries are THOSE systems? Which, for all we know, are technologically ancient legacy systems. To sell me insurance, it has to interact with the different systems of as many insurers as are on the exchange in that state. Probably better and more modern than the government systems, but still.. To compare it with a commercial site like Amazon or the rollout of a computer game is ludicrous. But - that's what people have to compare it with. This site is a monster of complexity piled on complexity.
