What is the best Server-Hardware

[erich.wanker]

Hello,

 

i am planing to rent a dedicated Server for my uniGUI app

 

I am developing on a 32bit machine (Win8.1 32bit)

i use delphi XE4 32 bit (german edition)

i want to use (??) Apache/2.4.3 (Win32) PHP/5.4.7 

 

What is the best CPU for the UniGUI DLL ?  ( single core / multi core .. where get i the best result for a 32bit DLL? )

What is the best Windows Operating System ? (only Firebird sql  (super or classic server??) / Apache Server / UniGui should running on this machine)

 

SSD as HD  is no problem ..

"a lot of Ram" is no problem ..

 

ThanX for suggestion

Since each session uses a thread multi core is the best choice.

 

 

"a lot of Ram" is no problem ..

"a lot of RAM" is useless if you develop in 32 bit

Hello Erich

My little experience :

 

1. Server Architecture :  

VPS are cheaper than dedicated server

if you have less than 100 users, VPS is a good choice

 

2. CPU :  

MultiCore of course !

 

3. System  :  

Windows server 2008 / 64  is a good choice (avoid Apache for the moment)

 

4. FireBird Architecture ( Classic, SuperClassic, Superserver  ?)

Classical (64 bit is fast)

 

"... if a Classic server process crashes, the other connections remain unaffected. With SuperClassic and Superserver, a crash take down all the connections...."
