Server capacity

Hello everyone, I currently have two servers for my traccar service, one for the MYSQL database and the other where the service is, I have 200 vehicles registered, my question is what capacity of RAM and storage is recommended for this amount of vehicles, or how I can calculate the capacity, the gps devices send information every 5 seconds, my servers are in digital ocean each one has 4gb of ram, 24gb of storage and a 2 core processor.

If you're using a VPS, you can always scale resources as needed.

Yes, but how many resources should the server have if I have 400 or 500 vehicles?

The whole point of cloud computing is that you don't need to ask that question. You just set up monitoring and add resources when needed.

Thanks Anton, I just checked and at the moment the servers use only 30% of RAM capacity so for some time it should not be necessary to increase the resources.

Logicly you also monitor cpu usage and space (ssd prefered for mysql database).
