Hi Chris,

Greetings!

We agree since it depends on various factors.

Providing an overview of our solution:

Our apps were written way back and sort of legacy applications based on client/server architecture.

All database related activities are being carried out by stored procedures. We are using Sybase ASE 16.

Regarding servers, we have deployed new servers specifically for this purpose which will run only PowerServer APIs.

These servers are hosted in private datacenters and average network latency from outside network are pretty much within acceptable range.



We also performed load testing using Load Runner on servers at the rate of minimum 100 session requests/user/hour(this number is variable as the test included multiple users with multiple transactions) and got satisfactory results. This test was performed using one server and we have 2 servers under load balancer.



Hope we are able to provide some solution insights.



Thanks,

Nilotpal

Hi Nilotpal ... Thank you for that great feedback!

Hi Armeen,

Greetings!

We are targeting support for 200 distinct users with minimum 1 app/user and maximum 2 apps/user concurrently.

We have total of 3 apps deployed and on some occasions it may reach to 3 apps/user.



Thanks,

Nilotpal

I would recommend going for the 600 user-session license. You can refer to the PowerServer pricing page for the various sizes you can choose from: https://www.appeon.com/pricing#powerserver

The PowerServer license allows you to install on multiple servers as long as you don't exceed the total user session capacity. For such number of users, a single server is adequate. But if you are concerned about redundancy, then you may want to deploy multiple servers.

Hi Armeen,

Thanks for the suggestion. We will try and explore additional licenses requirements for the same since the average maximum number of sessions can reach up to 400 and we have 300 user licenses.

Currently our solution is utilizing 2 servers under load balancer.



Thanks,

Nilotpal
