Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to use the HighCharts, only way would be to buy a developer license and setup a server which everyone would share access to but I'm not sure if that's the way to go. I don't know alot about servers, loads and how it would all work.
I assume other controller brands have their own server setup which all the controllers connect to?
What kind of server would be required to run say up to 500 users without speed issues?
I have the website on a shared Linux server with 1and1 and for the cost I couldn't be happier, would it be possible to use the existing setup or would it need to be a dedicated server? Again I wouldn't want any speed issues.
Yeah that is the easiest way (easiest for users, not for you :D And not cheap to you either). I don't think that Mysql / database / logging is something that everyone needs and want. So i say it can keep "simple" and those who want to use this kind of feature could setup new one/ or use own current server (it can be local server also, not needed to be internet) and just "add" files and do these whatever they liked. Example build own webpage etc.
I know that is not what everyone can do, but there is not going to be any other choices (except that you host server, databases and every user has own databases and access to it but like you said it is expensive, and how many even want this kind of feature? I think that is not many)
And there is always nice graphs in robo-tank display. So i think / assume that is enough for most of users :) And those which isn't can build own online database graph site, and make it just they wanted :)
