This all depends on the load your planning on putting on the web server.
Assuming you are using Apache as your web server, Apache forks a new
process (thread) for every web request. Drupal uses (my experience)
between 20MB - 70MB per process. Total capacity (number of processes or
MaxClients) tha
I would also say at least 2 cores and 4GB RAM. We have many clients that try to
run 1 core with bare minimum RAM and their VPS does not run well. Especially
when it's magento or opencart.

1 core, 2 cores, 2GB RAM, 4GB RAM, the question is only relevant if you
have no expandability. Select your software, take its recommendation, and
probably a little more, then make sure you can grow as needed.
Here is an example.
Let's say you go to AWS, get a server that is large enough to handl
I almost always create 2 cores for most minimum configurations when
available in any virtual environment. but in the case of a VPS it really
matters how well your stack handles multi-threading and if you expect to
have enough load to saturate a core.

I don't know that I would want to run a production site with Magento and
Drupal with less than 4gb of ram. The cores = more visitors concurrently
to your website. Unless very well designed, mysql/mariadb threads will
only use a single core per query, so one user on the site could

Hi,
I am wondering what your opinion is on cores and RAM when using a VPS.
I am thinking about this in the context of Drupal and Magento, both of
who are resource hogs.
I was told more RAM is much more valuable on a VPS than is the number of
cores.
I'm assuming 4G of RAM is enough to not
