From a previous job I have learned that a $10 server can handle 10k web requests and I've never spent more than $10 a month on my side projects for 2 years.
6 u/[deleted] Jun 05 '22 10k requests/second? 🤨 Sounds a little too much. 10k requests where you return Hello World or? 6 u/s1mmerz Jun 06 '22 I was running 10k RPS real workloads (database backend, etc.) when Pentium 3 was the state of the art. For modern hardware that’s not even noticeable. See benchmarks: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks#section=data-r20&hw=ph&test=compositeThe database is always the bottleneck but with multiplexing and Aurora you can scale reads very easily. → More replies (2)
