Question: How much disk space, memory and processing is required if we have to store 1-year's of data information for 50.000 domains with about 50 million pageviews per day?
Answer: Server specifications are really based on size of log data being crunched, and resulting amount of reporting data. Report data is going to be ~10% of raw log data. Try starting with the minimum system specifications, and scale from there:
* 2.5Ghz Pentium dual-core
* 2GB RAM per Core (i.e. dual-core = 4GB; quad-core = 16GB)
* Ultra2/Wide SCSI hard disk (such as a Seagate Cheetah)
* Backup utility external to Urchin
