Hi, excuse me, do you think that only one server could handle 20,000 concurrent viewers in live streaming?

The stream will be in 500kbps. The server could have 1Gbps of port speed.

What else should i care? Do you know what resource is more important: CPU or RAM to handle this kind of load.

We plan to use RTMP to play on FLASH an HLS to play on IOS devices.

Thanks a lot.

    Hi, we have not deployed it yet. We need to know if onlyone server could handle this or if it will be needed more than one server. We have thinked to deploy it on Softlayer because they have the option of ports of 1Gbps and dual 1Gbps. But we dont know if we need the more powerfull server available, or if we need a configuration with a decent CPU but more RAM. I cant find any info from Adobe about load testing results, or maximum RTMP and HLS connections to only one server. If you know something about it and can share with us ill thank you a lot.
