Server Requirements for WordPress Multisite

  • Hi

    Me and my friends are planning to start a WIX like company using wordpress multisite. I understand that it is a very complex and resource consuming task. We want to give it a start anyway:)

    Now we are stuck on server requirements! How much of a server capacity will we need to run around 1000 sites with heavy plugins like buddypress, woocommerce etc.?

    Will this dedicated server be enough?

    Intel E3-1271v3
    3.60 GHz Quad Core w/HT
    30 GB RAM
    2000 GB HDD in RAID 1
    2 TB Transfer

    Or is this server configuration too much for a starter? Currently the website is hosted on a shared server with just 1GB RAM and it is running 5 sites horribly!

    Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks

    And I also want to know why others dint start another WIX when even when they have enough expertise to do so! Well this is irrelevant but very important to me. Thanks

    Have you researched your niche? I think there are many free website builders out there.
