Server infrastructure for Bakeries
Sized from the workload rather than sold as a plan name: what Bakeries actually run, what that needs, and which tier it belongs on.
Recommended builds by size
Three sizes of operation, each sized from an assumed traffic figure.
Small
1–10 people · ~5,000 visits a month
Shared Hosting
- Single Core
- 4 GB RAM
- 40 GB storage
A single site or team, with traffic that arrives in a predictable working-hours pattern.
Medium
11–50 people · ~50,000 visits a month
VPS
- Single Core
- 6 GB RAM
- 80 GB storage
A growing business running several systems, where an outage now costs real money.
Large
51+ people · ~500,000 visits a month
VPS
- 4 Cores
- 16 GB RAM
- 200 GB storage
Multiple sites or a busy platform, with traffic that spikes and an obligation to stay up.
Which tiers suit Bakeries
| Infrastructure | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Shared Hosting Managed space on a shared server | Workable | Workable for a single small property or practice, though a shared database is the first thing to strain when bookings cluster. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | A VPS handles a booking engine and its database comfortably, with predictable performance when enquiries spike. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Pinned resources matter here: a reservation that times out at the payment step is a booking you never see. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Workable | Right once you are running several properties, or a property management system alongside the public site. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Not this one | Reservation workloads are database-bound rather than compute-bound, so the extra physical capacity goes unused. |
