VPS for 10K devices

fmidia 4 years ago

Hi guys, I want to set up a business structure to monitor via (android/IOS app client) about 10,000 devices.

What VPS configuration needed?

Thanks

Never test with so many devices I guess...however you can go for the highest VPS spec that is available.

It will depend on the reporting frequency of those devices.

For exemple
VPS 4 vCPU Cores, 10 GB RAM, 700 GB HDD (initially 1,000, then scaling, each with 4 reports/day)

Because we are thinking of opening a business to scale monitoring, however, as we are going to charge cheaply, we want to serve many subscribers.
the idea is to actually use the cell phone as a client for monitoring, it becomes easier, and there is no need to resell specific equipment.

i have an float ip on digital ocean 2 load balance and 4 traccar services big servers 32 ram 8vcpu with mysql db hosted to support
7,000 devices.reporting every 3 minutes.
the load balance can manage 30 k connectios and i need some upgrade, i am moving to more server than a strong capacity.
you will need twice my config or have i lote of servers.

4 reports per day is a very low frequency. You can probably use the smallest 1GB or 2GB VPS for 10000 devices with that frequency.

Anton Tananaev, thanks for the information.

Good to know all this to do the math.
You will always see me here on this forum.

Wouldn't that type of horizontal scaling structure with a load balancer cause issues with Traccar's internal cache?

Are there any config settings you're using to prevent cache issues from occurring?
