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 Ticketing Platforms size up this way
Working from about 5,000 visits a month and roughly 18,000 requests a day, peaks run about 16× the average hour, so the build is sized for the busiest moment rather than the typical one; about 11 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.
- 3.3 req/sec at peak
- 11.2 GB working set
- 3 GB/month growth

Which tiers suit Ticketing Platforms
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 | Fine for a first storefront with a small catalogue, but checkout under load is where shared hosting shows its limits. |
| VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access | Recommended | Enough headroom for a catalogue, a cart and a payment gateway, with the caching layers a store needs to stay quick. |
| VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone | Recommended | Guaranteed CPU is what keeps checkout responsive during a sale, when traffic arrives all at once rather than evenly. |
| Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification | Recommended | The right tier for a high-traffic store, or one whose database has outgrown what a virtual instance can cache. |
| Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads | Workable | Reserved for very large catalogues and enterprise commerce platforms running their own search and queue tiers. |
