claudiowochner Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) I'm offering Prestashop solution to a customer, but I'm concerned with the solution performance when the website have a lot of simultaneous access. They have around 500 products on list and around 10 product categories. In medium they have around 400 simultaneous visitors, but they have peaks up 2000. We'll use CDN solutions for static content and I'm quiet with the good hosting solution we have. I really concerned with php, database and smarty performance with this quantity of simultaneous visitors. I'm worried about bullshit? Is it quiet to Prestashop work with this demand? Somebody have any experience with a similar situation like this? And for finish, somebody have examples of sites that have a heavy traffic and continues working quiet?

Dh42 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 What is the server set up you are using? Are you using a dedicated server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claudiowochner Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 I want to use a Amazon AWS instance with high resources, but if necessary I can use a dedicated server with a fast Internet conection. Hardware isn't a problem. If necessary, I'll upgrade it. We want to start the project on next week using Prestashop 1.6.0.6 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dh42 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 If you use AWS I would recommend using PIOPS with it as well for smooth database performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claudiowochner Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 Thanks for the tip So, do you really think that I can work quiet with a Prestashop solution having the prior mentioned demand of simultaneous visitors? And, if you have, can you share a example of sites that have a heavy traffic and continues working quiet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trip Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 May I ask how you measured the simultaneous users? Maybe I think somehow wrong but when I do the math and lets say I am expecting "only" 400 users in a minute it sums up to already over half a million visitors per day. Imo Prestashop could handle that but out of curiosity - how many visitors/orders do they have a day? How would you handle the orders? You might want to do some synthetic benchmarks using apache bench ab -c 20 -n 100 http://testsite This simulates 20 concurrent users with 100 request and was no problem on my desktop machine here. With 100 concurrent users the server gets to slow but my testsystem is really not optimized and I think they are edge cases. All the best, Trip 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
