Please note that this planning was confirmed in February 2016. In March 2016 bxp Release 10 saw a significant increase in server performance. bxp has not been tested against the improved server capacities but will exceed all figures currently stated.
Capacity planning is essential to ensure that performance of the solution is effective for all scenarios. Given the extremely heterogeneous nature of the BE bxp environment it becomes “best guess” for items that are being prototyped.
The user profile within BE bxp varies from client to client and system to system, making creating an example user profile an almost impossible task. So instead we have three possible ways of reviewing the capacity.
* Load on internet connection / dedication of internet connection
* Running applications
* Interim connections (communications devices / hops between testing machine and BEbxp)
Remote server upload speed: Unknown, assume unlimited.
File size: 500Kb
Result: BE bxp at this level theoretically accepts 600 documents in 1 second with no other traffic or activity.
This means BE bxp can handle 600,000 requests per second for pages simultaneously.
Using the BEAPI, XML responses are sent. The XML with some data would not typically be much bigger. With a conservative guesstimate of 2Kb, we can guesstimate that BE bxp can supply 150,000 responses per second.
