I’m in the midst of an pretty interesting conversation about content on my discourse site that may change traffic significantly. I’m presently on a 1GB RAM, 1vCPU, 40GB SSD instance. Its very small community today- let’s say 30 active members. Adding this particular content may grow the site to 3…

Sure. Just scale your VM and then run ./discourse-setup to have it adjust the parameters for the memory usage. You can scale to whatever you want. Whether you scale to 2 or 4GB for more is up to you, but I’d guess that 4GB will be enough.

You probably need about 4-8gb for a larger community, and a lot more SSD storage, probably a few terabytes.

Wow, that was fast. Thank you both!

My response was just a rough estimate. The more the better really.

4GB will be ample. Your storage needs won’t explode unless you expect to be upload-heavy. In which case don’t scale up the directly-attached storage beyond what the 4GB offers as standard ($$$) instead look at implementing S3 or one of the S3-like clones which are out there.

규모가 큰 커뮤니티의 경우 대략 4~8GB의 메모리가 필요할 것이며, SSD 저장 공간도 훨씬 더 많이 필요할 것입니다. 아마도 몇 테라바이트 정도가 될 것입니다.
