Mid-sized production environment

A mid-sized production environment consists of two servers - one web server and one database server. Such a setup is suitable for hosting about 3 or 4 websites that need to be able to take the load of approximately 10 000 requests for 30 minutes. The requests depend on whether they are new requests, cached on the frontend or backend, and so on.
