Scalability of osCommerce

Hi,

 

I have had a technical question about osCommerce I am unable to answer from one of my clients. Question is:

 

Can I also ask you about scalability of the site, I am interested in the max number of concurrent users the site will handle based upon a HP DL380 with 2 x Xeon processors running at 3.0+Gig with 2 Gig RAM, running Linux.

 

Anyone have an idea of the answer to this, or the best way to respond?

 

Many thanks,

 

Mike

As far as scalability goes, if the server load ever gets too high, they could either upgrade the server, get a dedicated one (if this one isn't dedicated already), or look into some load balancing techniques, like clustered mysql servers, separating the mysql server from the web server, etc... I don't think there's really a way to answer how many people that server will actually support except to say as many as it can until it starts bogging down...
