• Use this skill when the task matches this description: Reference document for monopoly scale-benchmarks.

Quick Estimation Formulas

User → RPS Conversion

Requests per second (avg) = DAU × avg_requests_per_user_per_day / 86400
Requests per second (peak) = avg_RPS × peak_multiplier

Peak multipliers by app type:
  Social media:      5–10×
  E-commerce:        3–5× (higher during sales)
  News / media:      10–20× (breaking news spike)
  B2B SaaS:          2–3× (business hours spike)
  Gaming:            5–15× (event-driven)

Storage Estimation

Storage per day    = persisted_writes_per_day × stored_bytes_per_write
Storage per year   = storage_per_day × 365
With replication   = storage_per_year × replication_factor (3× typical)
Cache affects origin request load, not durable storage: estimate cache storage separately

Common payload sizes:
  Tweet / short text:    500B
  Social post with text: 2KB
  Profile data:          5KB
  Image (compressed):    200KB–2MB
  Video (per minute):    50MB (720p), 150MB (1080p)
  API JSON response:     1–20KB

Bandwidth Estimation

Inbound bandwidth  = avg_request_size × RPS
Outbound bandwidth = avg_response_size × RPS

Convert: 1 Gbps = 125 MB/s
         10 Gbps = 1.25 GB/s

Establishing capacity limits

There are no universal per-product throughput, memory or sharding limits without a tested workload. Record exact version/topology, hardware, record sizes, indexes, durability/replication, query mix, concurrency and p95/p99 latency/error targets. Increase load against representative data until a measured saturation constraint appears, then test a change and failover headroom.

Managed services still have account, partition, regional and API quotas. SQS retention is configurable up to 14 days; throughput varies by queue type, region, batching and high-throughput settings. Do not label managed databases or queues unlimited. Kafka throughput depends on partitions, brokers, payload and durability; consumers in a group are limited by assigned partitions. In-memory caches are bounded by available memory, item/object overhead, eviction, network and workload.

Illustrative Capacity Scenarios

The following DAU/RPS/storage/server/cost ranges are unvalidated teaching assumptions, not benchmarks, quotes or required architectures. Recompute from requests per user, durable-write fraction, bytes/retention and dated regional pricing, including egress, support, backups and operations.

Common SLO Targets

| Tier | Availability | Monthly Downtime Allowed |

|------|-------------|--------------------------|

| 99% | Basic | 7.3 hours/month |

| 99.9% (three nines) | Standard production | 43.8 minutes/month |

| 99.95% | Important services | 21.9 minutes/month |

| 99.99% (four nines) | Critical services | 4.38 minutes/month |

| 99.999% (five nines) | Telecom / payments | 26 seconds/month |

Possible reliability measures to evaluate against a defined SLI/window (not a guarantee or universal requirement): Multi-AZ deployment, automated failover, zero-downtime deploys, chaos engineering, 24/7 on-call.

Latency Budget Guidelines

User perceived latency targets:
  < 100ms  → Feels instant
  100–300ms → Acceptable for most interactions
  300ms–1s → Noticeable; optimize if possible
  > 1s     → Frustrating; unacceptable for critical paths

Network latency by distance (approximate):
  Same datacenter:    0.5ms
  Same region (AZ):   1–2ms
  Cross-region US:    30–60ms
  US to Europe:       80–120ms
  US to Asia:         150–250ms

Database query targets:
  Simple key-value:   < 1ms (cache)
  Simple DB query:    < 5ms
  Complex query:      < 50ms
  Reporting query:    < 500ms (async if > 1s)
