Planning to store musics,video files similar to youtube,
To run youtube.com kind of web server, what kind of server hardware setup
needed ??
Kindly give suggestions on hardwares spec for the above kind of server
setup.
Start small. Setup a server on Amazon EC2 or a similar cloud service.
Setup your application on that and see what type of load your server will
be facing. As your website gets popular, you will need to add more server
instances, setup load balancing, setup multiple database servers etc.
Store your files on S3 (if you are using Amazon EC2).
Regards,
Prem
