Hello all,

We have started to use overpass to query OSM. We have found out early that we will need our own server to be able to cope with the load needed for us.

I have been successful using the docker container described here: https://github.com/wiktorn/Overpass-API.

The next step is to deploy it to production, but I have some questions which are probably the easiest to be answered on this mailing list.

We will probably need only the Europe extract.

The questions are:

1. How much CPU and memory does a normal Overpass server need ?

2. Disk/volume and compute resources will be separated. Therefore, is it okay or does it make sense to have multiple servers using the same volume/mount/disk storage ?

3. Also are there any other performance suggestions ?

Thank you in advance.

With respect,

Arnold Szederjesi
