If i have approx. 1TB of data stored in community edition. will it be able to support 40+ users performing semantic search at once? Or would i need to move to the enterprise edition?
depends on many factors.
How much RAM do you have? How much is allocated to heap/pagecache?
How complex are the queries? What is the SLA for a query. is it < 100ms or < 5000ms
deployed to kubernetes with 16gb memory.
Queries are fairly simple, SLA < 5000ms currently.
given a 1TB database but yet only 16GB of RAM, most of your queries are reading data from the filesystem vs the pagecache/RAM.
