How many resources do I need to setup Nginx reverse proxy on DO?

Posted on November 14, 2023

Hi Team,

I am trying to setup a nginx reverse proxy for one of my webserver which is currently handling a massive hits. I am still not sure how many resources would I need on DO if I decided to setup Nginx reverse proxy for my webserver?

The webserver is an on-premise IIS server and I tried analyzing the logs file for last 12 hours. Here are the stats. Probably based on that if I can get any fair idea?

For 12 hours

  1. We captured 29061202 logs
  2. So considering 24 hours number would be around 60000000
  3. The website is currently a HTTPS and its bank main
