VPS .. or dedicated ... HELP ME!!!!
Hi,
I want to host one site:
It performs bout 1,000 MySQL queries per second.
200 users online at the same time
500 visitors per hour
What do I need... VPS or Dedicated?
And how much power do I need?
And Who is the best provider?
Thanks,

If you're very serious about those numbers, you're going to need more then just a VPS or a dedicated server. You'll need to look into a multi-server clustered solution or a very beefy individual server.
You may also want to consider one server for web and a very beefy server for database.

The ratio of the first figure (1000 MySQL queries per second) and the latter two don't really match. I wonder what sort of site is it?
Oh and as taylorwilsdon suggested above, you'd more than likely have to look into clustered solutions.DevOps!

Rent out a huge data center! Can you let us know what site this is for? The one server for the database and one for the web content sounds like an excellent idea.

I recommend a managed vps as if it overloaded they would tell you and if it breaks they will fix!

Thats an awful idea. You shouldn't be putting a site this large on a shared environment, even if your resources are guaranteed.
