mid server - best practises

[wbwb]

I'm currently planning out my mid server setup.   I'm hoping someone can recommend some best practices for mid server installs.

Currently we'll be using it for ldap use only.   No discovery, etc, but that may come next year.   We're a Windows environment.   How many Windows servers are typically rolled out and howm any instances of mid servers on each Windows server is recommended.   Are the sizing specs for Windows memory, hard drive space, etc realistic in the documentation or do they need to be bigger?

If your LDAP server is behind your firewall, then the MID server is a requirement.

I would recommend to go for professional help instead. It is seen that the server hosting provider guys have a good experience and can easily solve any technical difficulties that may arise. Moreover, they also offer these services at cheap rates.

If you are using managed vps server hosting, cloud web server hosting, dedicated web server hosting for your business then it can benefit you only when you will get nearly 100% server uptime.

Colocation server services are usually provided by tier-4 data centers & they can give you complete control of your server & keep the maintenance part to themselves which are also offered at nominal pricing plans.

Hope this helps.
