I would say that 500 concurrent users isn't to much for some servers to handle. It all depends on your hardware and your code. If you are using out of the box, what are those 500 users going to be doing? If it is custom code, how cleanly is it written. Performance testing and improvement is a job all on it's own. But I have had systems that have dealt with that level of load without a problem. The biggest issue is the single point of failure mentioned.
