Can sendy scale to millions of emails?

tomfotherby

Hi,

We need to send a daily email to all our members and it's going to work out at 400k a day or 12million per month. Can Sendy scale to this? Our SES limit is 90/s. To fork 90 PHP processes I wonder what instance type you'd need to run. Would a c1.xlarge cut it? A c1.xlarge is $480 per month and is 8 CPU cores and 7G or RAM.

Cheers, I appreciate any responses,
Tom

Hi Tom,

The best way to find out is by scaling up your instance until you find one that's best suited for your volume.

Thanks.

Thanks Ben,

Has any of your other customers managed to get sendy to send 400k emails per day running on EC2?
