- ✓ 5 infrastructure tiers

- ✓ Same price in all 24 locations

Configure this build →These figures are assumptions stated out loud, not predictions about your business. Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server later, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address — so starting one size below the estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.
Why Event Management size up this way
Working from about 5,000 visits a month and roughly 11,667 requests a day, peaks run about 10× the average hour, so the build is sized for the busiest moment rather than the typical one.
- 1.4 req/sec at peak
- 4.9 GB working set
- 1 GB/month growth

Which tiers suit Event Management
Including the ones that do not, and why — that is usually the more useful half.
| 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. |

Event Management in Alberta
The closest of our 24 data centres to Alberta is Seattle, about 490 miles away. The price is the same in all 24 locations, so distance is the only variable worth optimising.
Alberta has a population of about 3,277, which is why the small build above is the one most likely to fit a Event Management business here — though the other two are a click away if it does not. Local time is America/Edmonton, so routine maintenance and backups are scheduled against your overnight rather than ours.
Data stays in the jurisdiction you choose, which matters if you are working to PIPEDA. Pricing is quoted in CAD, and the figure is the same wherever the machine physically sits.
