The router resource estimator estimates the system resources you need to allocate for the GraphOS Router to run production traffic. The resource estimator can help you get a starting baseline that you can then iterate on.

Usage

To use the estimator:

1. Enter your estimated request rate per second and peak request rate per second.
2. Adjust the other parameters to match your estimated production load. For number of instances, use fewer for improved efficiency or more for improved redundancy.
3. Adjust the Assumptions as necessary.
4. Be sure to test and iterate.
