Hello,
To put some background: I live in Argentina. Our economy is a mess; smal companies can't (or don't want to) afford enterprise grade hardware. So mainly buy budget hardware or (even worst) consumer grade desktop machines AS SERVERS!!!
And then they expect that shitty hardware give excellent performance.
So they want this Server HPE Proliant DL380e Gen6
TL,DR:
I've been asked to install proxmox and build two KVM (WS 2016 with RDS, 25 CAL each).
I'm really concerned about performance as they want 50 users on this setup.
The use will be just for an ERP application, and users offen open 3 or 4 different instances
My first thought is: No.
But how do I know, I never made this type of setup; with many recurrent users on virtualized WS.
So I'm asking for experiences, opinions, advices. Everything is welcome.
Thank you all
