Hello, I am a new user with Digital Ocean. I need to have the following: i have a basic nodeJS with MongoDB server which will need to handle at the worst case about 300-400 http client requests at the same time. This server handles basic requests and should query the local mongo db and save some information in the db which are basic CRUD operations on users\teams information (approx. 2 mongoDB collections with 500 documents in each one). Question 1 Do i really need to 1 GB RAM or the 512 RAM should be enough for it ? Question 2 When i create a Droplet, do i get a public IP which i can forward my domain dns record to? I use dnsimple account for forwarding my domain name. is there exist a tutorial for this kind of basic stuff - please let me know :)
Thanks!
