Is there any way to know how many users it can handle at a time for a website developed in asp.net mvc?

I recently developed a website in Aspnet MVC a online pdf merge tool http://onlinepdfmerge.com for merging pdf files online. I hosted it in the server. I am not sure how many users it can handle at a time. I am excepting it to handle like 4000 to 6000 daily vistors. So i wanted to know whether it can handle like 4000 to 6000 daily vistors or do i need to upgrade the hosting?

The capacity depends on many factors :

  • server's hardware specification
  • Input size
  • Output size
  • data proceing and calculations in between
  • bandwidth
  • type of request and protocol of communication.
  • garbage of objects / memory management
  • the way you wrote program and created project architecture.

It dependes how the users are distributed in time, how big are requests etc. You would need to perform load & performance testing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_testing, ASP.NET Stress Testing).

If you have shared hosting - performing such tests might be not allowed without prior agreement with provider.

I would monitor the server load, response time etc and decide on migration when I will know the demand on resources (it current hosting is not sufficient)
