We’re interested in deploying Fleet Stack and need to understand the server requirements for different fleet sizes—specifically for 100, 1,000, 5,000, and even 15–20K vehicles.
Could you provide a breakdown of the recommended server configuration for these scenarios?

Thank you for showing interest in Fleet Stack! This is a very common question, and while actual server requirements can vary based on workload and specific usage factors, we have tested our platform under ideal conditions. Below is a breakdown of the minimum server configurations recommended for hosting different fleet sizes:
| Fleet Size | CPU | RAM | HDD | Internet Bandwidth (from the server) |
| Up to 100 vehicles | 2 cores | 6 GB | 100–250 GB | Minimum 25 Mbit/s |
| Up to 1,000 vehicles | 2 cores | 8 GB | 250–500 GB | Minimum 25 Mbit/s |
| Up to 5,000 vehicles | 2 CPUs (total 8 cores; e.g., 4 cores per CPU) | 12 GB each server | 500 GB – 1 TB | Minimum 25 Mbit/s |
| Up to 15–20K vehicles | 3 CPUs (total 12 cores; e.g., 4 cores per CPU) | 16 GB each server | 3 TB | Minimum 25 Mbit/s |
Note:
We hope this breakdown helps you plan your infrastructure effectively. If you have any further questions or need assistance tailoring these recommendations to your specific use case, please feel free to reach out!

Thank you for your thoughtful follow-up questions! I’m happy to provide some guidance on scaling your infrastructure, hardware recommendations, and network bandwidth optimization for high-volume deployments.
1. Scaling Beyond 20,000 Vehicles:When your fleet grows beyond 20,000 vehicles, we recommend a phased scaling approach. This typically involves adding more servers and using load balancers to distribute the workload efficiently. Regular monitoring of system performance is key—adjust resources as your data load increases. In many cases, consulting with our support team for a tailored scaling plan can help ensure that your infrastructure remains robust as your fleet expands.
2. Hardware and Virtualization Recommendations:While Fleet Stack is designed to work on a variety of hardware, many of our customers have had success with enterprise-grade servers from trusted brands such as Dell, HP, or Lenovo. For virtualization, solutions like VMware or Hyper-V are well-regarded for reliability and performance. Additionally, containerization (using Docker, for example) paired with orchestration tools like Kubernetes can provide flexibility and ease of scaling, especially in dynamic environments.
3. Optimizing Network Bandwidth:For high-volume deployments, maintaining sufficient network bandwidth is crucial. Here are a few best practices:
I hope these insights help!
