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 Market Data Providers size up this way
Working from about 500,000 visits a month and roughly 500,000 requests a day, storage grows by roughly 1,200 GB a month at this size, which usually decides the build before CPU does; about 256 GB of data needs to stay in memory to keep queries fast; and each request costs real computation rather than a cache lookup, so cores matter more here than on a typical site.
- 23.2 req/sec at peak
- 256 GB working set

Which tiers suit Market Data Providers
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 | Not this one | Persistent connections and custom ports are exactly what a shared platform does not permit. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Workable | Enough for a small server or a test instance, though a noisy neighbour shows up immediately as jitter. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Pinned cores are what keep tick rate and call quality steady; on a contended instance they are not. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | Single-tenant hardware removes the last source of variance, which is what these workloads are judged on. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | For operators running many instances at once on hardware they control. |
Market Data Providers workloads you can host
Ingest never stops and the archive never shrinks — this is a storage and throughput problem before anything else.

Market Data Providers in Sydney
We work with businesses across the CBD, Parramatta, Bondi, North Sydney and Chatswood. Sydney is Australia’s most competitive market, where “near me” searches and fast load times matter most.

Sydney has a population of about 5,638,830, which is why the large build above is the one most likely to fit a Market Data Providers business here — though the other two are a click away if it does not.
