I recently ran a test where I had a $350 mini server using a golang binary, rabbitmq, redis and MySQL (all hosted on the same mini server)handle 5000 reqs/s sustained. That translates to 400 million reqs in a 24 hour day.
I’m amazed at how great the tools are these days that are free and yet we pay so much to cloud providers. I know it’s not an apples to apples comparison but it was so great to develop all that and fine tune it on a box in my basement.
