    Default Hardware Specs

    Hi, soon ill put on air a new dolphin website using Dolphin 6.1.5/6, we need to use a hardware that support up to 15.000 users using Ray A/V Chat.

    With your experience, which is the best hardware to support this?

    Can dedicated server support this size?

    You will want fast hard drives... in RAID 10... unless you will be spending time optimizing the SQL in the scripts for 15000+ users (of course, only a fraction of them will be online at once - but even if online is a couple to several hundred, you need some power).

    Also, remember, Apache will need some configuration, and mySQL, to support this number of users. You may want to try LiteSpeed, with eAccelerator.

    And make sure you are on 1 gigabit ports.

    As for your media server, you may want to consider a commercial product.... you simply can't beat FLASH MEDIA SERVER for ease of use, power, and reliability but it is expensive. You could start out with RED5 (RMS) and change later if the demand warrants it.

    If you want / need help with this server setup / config, open a ticket with us, we do a lot of server config and maintainace in addition to programming.

    Warm regards and good luck!

    Hi, tkz for yout answer, really help me.

    But came another doubt, import/export from different machines is a hard work?? or just dump/restore DB and system?

    My ideia is get a dedicated server for the beggining (its a comercial system) and change for to a own server (we want to use two server, main and mirror) in a datacenter???

    We are hoping that Ray will be open source, and do all it claims it will do, in version 7.

    Until then, we use several chat applications to replace Ray, from UserPlane to 123FlashChat, and others. We also have 123FlashChat hosting.

    Warm regards,
