Infraestructure to Moodle with 80000 users

Hi.

First, thanks for attention!

 

I'm needing to define an infrastructure for Moodle environment with 80000 users.

This environment should use Linux + Apache + PostgreSQL.
In addition to these requirements, this environment will require high availability.

I'm considering 30% (24000) of logged in users, and 10% (8000) of simultaneous accesses.

Could you help me?

Thank you!!

its probably better to get a moodle partner involved in the project as you can get specialist advice on this.

But things you may consider - get the hosting of the website done by a web hosting provider( like rackspace or even a moodle partner) to help deal with expansion of disk space in a cloud infrastructure

hardware is a big factor - load balancer .

lots of RAM and virtual memory to deal with simultaneous users. Have a look at companies providing IAAS (Infrastructure as a service) they host everything on the cloud hence saving maintenance cost of the website while giving room for more users.
