Server requirements for Matomo self hosted

[Paul&John]

Hi there!

Are the numbers accurate on their site?

https://matomo.org/faq/on-premise/matomo-requirements/

- Tracking 100,000 page views per month or less
App server minimum recommended configuration: 2 CPU, 2 GB RAM, 50GB SSD disk.

- Tracking 1 million page views per month or less
App server minimum recommended configuration: 4 CPU, 8 GB RAM, 250GB SSD disk.

- Tracking 10 million page views per month or less
Two servers recommended
1 x App servers, at least 8 CPUs, 16 GB RAM, 100GB SSD disk.
Or 2 x App servers, at least 4 CPUs, 4 GB RAM, 100GB SSD disk.
1 x Database server, at least 8 CPUs, 16 GB RAM, 400GB SSD disk.

Planning to test it out for some smaller blogs (500-3k hits per day) and I would like to know if its a good idea to put it on a VPS with 1 CPU lol.

Thanks.

I'm running it on a VPS 4 cpu 8gb with a 600k page views monthly tube site generating the page views tracked and it works fine.

Load average between 0.01 and 0.08. 1.0 - 1.5 when I encoding videos.

Matomo is excellent, I also use it and I love it, nothing but great things to say about it! I also find it uses very few resources and my website gets millions of pageviews a month

How fast is control panel when you have a lot of data to load ?

Thanks for the answers. Btw in order to get some keyword data I guess imports are needed to be set up from Google, Bing etc. according to: https://matomo.org/guide/installatio...ywords-reports
Are there any limits on API calls for those?

Very quick, maybe a second or two delay for the widgets to load on the dashboard
