Firebase database handles up to 100 simultaneous real time connections to your database if your are using their free plan but once the 101st users connects to your database the database would stop responding and would display the values that were last edited. Firebase is really good at handling real time connections simultaneously so it depends on your pricing plans. If you want to use the database for free, there will be no issues handling 100 connections but if you want to handle more users use their generous pricing plans.
