I`d like to stream on demand, using red5, flv videos encoded to 150kbps (between 5 to 10 MB) and at the same time use amfphp with an apache server to stream a 1 MB ByteArray per each FLV. Can I install both rtmp and http servers on the same machine ?
Would it choke up ?
If it is possible to install them together, how can I estimate the amount of pressure on the machine or the amount of simultaneous connections the system will allow me per RAM and CPU power ? (Please let`s ignore here the upload speed and bandwidth calculations)
Is there any way or tool to simulate this on a localhost or on the server I rent ?
I need to decide whether to rent a dedicated server or if a virtual private server would do for the start and if one machine would be enough …
I know my query is a bit vague, so any pointers would help out here.
Thanks for your time and patience.
