huge traffic == huge server
if you get to a site with millions of users then your devops team will have the expertise to build the correct infrastructure taking into account performance and availability (oh, and it won't be one server)

What kind of server is needed for a huge traffic website.
Hi, suppose there is an app that has millions of users. and every day thousands if not millions use the app. so I don't think a managed hosting can provide a good service for that kind of application. so I just wanna know what kind of server is needed to handle this many users. do the app needs its own personal server or something? or it is something that is related to strong servers?

@Snapey It seems like I need my own data center. is it a good idea to use multiple AWS servers and my team manages it?

@iftekhs what you're describing would be relatively trivial for a well-configured AWS solution - multiple EC2 servers, RDS and Load Balancer all would be easily configured and managed by a competent devops team

@iftekhs there are multiple ways of doing it. The point is, you don't wake up one day and find you have millions of users.

@tykus Thank you actually I was just curious if I make a huge app then what would be the server solution for me :)

@iftekhs Solve problems when you actually have them. Not problems you think you‘ll have.
Trying to predict problems you’re going to have is like trying to predict the future: it’s pretty certain you’ll get it wrong.
