2.3 Scalability Parameters

The scalability parameters for a single-server deployment are as follows:

  • A single-server setup is ideal for small setups of 500 to 1000 users.

  • Clients must have a dedicated network interface card (NIC) of 100 Mbps capacity.

  • Web-based access must be low, and thick client access must be moderate with up to 500 active connections.

  • Data transfer (synchronization of user data) rate must be 10 MB per hour per client.

  • The synchronization interval must be 10 minutes.
