    Hello,
    I have a question about selecting a good hardware for an ISPCONFIG 3 in a large scale deployment.
    I want to deploy ISPCONFIG 3 to serve a very large amount of websites. Each website will have around 15000 to 20000 concurrent users. Most of websites will be made anything from a wordpress blog to social media websites that can draw thousand of users per day.
    For that reason I want to install ISPCONFIG following the following tutorial (multi server).

    http://www.howtoforge.com/multiserver-setup-with-dedicated-web-email-dns-and-mysql-database-servers-on-debian-squeeze-with-ispconfig-3

    My question is:
    Can anybody here tell me what hardware specs I should choose for a web server, a database server for example.
    I'm thinking of using 10 used Dell PowerEdge 1950 1U servers with the following technical specs:
    Processor Type: two Xeon Quad Core
    Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz
    Memory (RAM) Capacity: 8 GB

    Do you think that can be a solid hardware for a database for example for the scenario described above ?


    Regards,
    Chris
    Dell PowerEdge 1950 1U
