• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Hi,

How many domains can a Server really support??? lets assume that I have a PIV 2.8 GHZ and 80HDD and 1GB RAM with unlimited domain license and 1.5 Terabyte of transfer?

I have seen servers with 900 Domains or so, any sugestions?

Thanks.
 
There is no hard limit.

When I worked at Plesk, I remember we had some crazy customers who had like 8k - 10k domains on a single server. Granted it was a pretty beefy quad cpu machine, but you get the point.

Personally I think that grossly overselling your servers is a huge risk. You are much better off getting lots of small servers and putting a few hundred domains on each, to spread the load. That being said, it doesn't take a few hundred domains to overload a server. One highly active domain can easily trash a server.

It's up to you as the admin of the server to decide where your threshold is.
