Suggestion Required!!!!

[VeonConsulting]

Hi

We got a new client. The client has 40 million records and has about 5000 users.
What should we suggest for hardware?

We will be pleased if the replies are detailed.

Hi there,

Check out Jacob's CTO Series forum for some discussion on performance, sizing, etc.

You also might check out the database vendor's site (MySQL or Microsoft for MSSQL, depending on which database you're using) for suggestions too.
