[asterisk-users] Conference Meetme

[torintino1 at hotmail.com]

I need the server to handle about 300 - 400 simultaneous meetme conferences, 5-10 participants in each,

Actually I need to know, if I will get an IBM X3650 M2, QuadCore, 4-6 GB RAM, 8MB cache,
how many simultaneous meetme conferences I can operate on a this server.

Thanks

Last year I did a lab test for a customer who wanted conferencing solution for his organization, on a 2 x dual core xeon with 4GB type server, which had 120 zap channels and I put all the channels in mutiple conferences, from 4 to 20 users per conference and let it running for two weeks. Munin graph showed that CPU load was only 6 to 7 percent during this period, no conference dropped and asterisk didn't crash, and I occasionally used it to make calls and run other processes, and no call quality issues. Now that server is in production and customer is happy with it. I don't know about SIP which will use more processing, but I am sure a decent server of today can handle a good number of conferences with a good number of users each. What numbers you are looking for?

  How long is a piece of string?

  0) A better subject yields better answers

  1) A more detailed question yields a more detailed answer.

  A reasonably configured Asterisk server can handle XXX callers with Y
  callers in each of Z conferences.
