A lot of stationmasters will face a problem when using the server, how many people can 1M bandwidth accommodate at the same time? A base than know that we have given a reference answer for reference.

Bandwidth determines how many visitors it carries

1. website type

If it is a text website, 1M bandwidth drives 5000IP per day, which is barely enough. If it is a website with pictures, text, forums, and news information types, about 1M can bring 1,000 IP. Considering the concurrency during peak periods, 1M will also be stuck during peak periods. Minimum CPU+512 RAM. 1 thousand IP CPU takes up about 10%, memory between 200 and 300

2. Quality of servers

Servers are divided into three types: high, middle and low. Different models and brands of servers can handle different traffic, so this is one of the reasons why it affects the number of simultaneous online visits.

3. Size of bandwidth

If the maximum bandwidth guaranteed by the server is 5M (i.e. 5Mbit/s), the maximum data transmission speed of the corresponding server should be 5Mbit/s x 1024/8=640KB, and the traffic in 1 minute is about 640 x 60=38400KB. Assuming that each user always occupies 10KB of traffic within 1 minute, that is, the number of simultaneous online visitors who support such traffic within 1 minute is 3840 (video high-traffic websites are not included in this example).

To sum up, a low-end server usually supports up to 2000 people online, and is only suitable for servers and text-based forums after the construction of ordinary websites, excluding pictures, downloads, videos, etc.
