I'm looking for some hardware specs on dedicated server. I would like to run SMS Server Tools 3, my website, mysql and PHP all on one server with about 30 GSM USB modems that will send and receive messages individually. I mean are we talking dual core processors and 2GB of RAM or something more powerful?
SMSTools does not need resources very much, even when running with more than 30 modems.
If you keep more than 10000 files in the single directory, like
incoming, the file system may become slow. After files are processed, they should be moved to another place, or deleted. If you save incoming messages to SQL database, those files usually are not needed anymore.
SQL database and www server will take most of the capacity. Generally taken, in serious business the best and most powerful server should be selected. Processor as fast as possible and memory more than enough. The server should have capacity after two or three years too, so now is not the time to save in any component.

I dont want the system to get bogged down where it takes 60 seconds for it to post back a text message.
Has this happened in tests, or is it just a chimera?
