What's the minimum requirements it would take to run a web server...one that might serve a few thousand people (though not all necessarily at the same time)?
What kind of bandwidth would be required?
What kind of hardware would be required?
The site in question would be running a MySQL database and would be a PHP application. Hard to say how many simoultaneous users there would be....probably at least a few hundred that would actually be viewing the page.
Aside from the website itself...there would be a clientside application that users would be running so they can update various portions of the database. Depending on how I want to program the client, this update can be going on anywhere from constantly to only once every few minutes (or longer).
Anyone with any experiencing know what kind of requirements it would take to put something like this together..?
