That sounds like a small system, so I don't think any special considerations need to be taken other than the normal recommendations.

The number of user connections by themselves are not a problem...the question is what these users will do in your database. If this is an OLTP system and you have 400 tradingbots running 50 trades/sec each it's a different story.
