자체 호스팅 포럼 - 언제 더 큰 Droplet로 업그레이드해야 할까요?

Digital Ocean에 자체 호스팅된 포럼을 운영하고 있습니다. 드롭릿을 더 큰 스펙으로 업그레이드해야 할 때를 가늠하는 경험칙이 있는지 궁금합니다. 어떤 주요 지표를 확인하시나요?

현재 드롭릿의 상태는 다음과 같습니다:

When you run out of disk space.

2GB is plenty if you include swap.

Imho none of those graphs look like a problem.

So, by “disk space” you mean disk usage (from above)?

And by “run out” - how would you define that?

Yeah that’s your biggest constraint here. That’s probably going to bite you eventually but on DO you can enlarge that without moving server.

Make sure you always have at least 5GB free.

Where do I check on this… I’m hunting around on DO to find this measure. or are you just saying don’t go much above 90% or 95% usage on a 50 gb disk droplet?

90% presumably.

So to deal with that safely and calmly, increase it when it hits 85%.

Your cpu is all but idle. If you aren’t experiencing trouble don’t go looking for it.

If you’re asking someone else for next year’s budget, tell them it’s time. :slight_smile:

You could also add a CDN for likely less than increasing the droplet size would cost. It might help, especially if users are far away from the server.
