# Size your environment

Sizing an environment means translating three things into resources: how many users it has, how many work at the same time, and which applications they use.

### What determines the size

* **Concurrent users**: what determines the load is how many users work at the same time, not the total number of registered users.
* **Application profile**: a light office workstation does not consume the same as one with a demanding ERP. The heavier the applications, the more resources per user.

### The platform's recommendation

When deploying, we suggest a starting size based on the users and applications planned. It's a sensible starting point: you can accept it or choose another configuration. With demanding applications, it's best to test with a group and monitor actual usage before rolling it out more broadly.

### One server or several

An environment starts with one server. When the load grows, you add servers and the environment becomes **multi-server**.

* Users are distributed among the servers through a **load balancer**, which distributes sessions.
* That way you add capacity without rebuilding the environment: you grow as your customer grows.

### Adjust when the load changes

Sizing is not final. You adjust the server resources from the **Servers subscription** associated with the environment, or add servers, as demand evolves and without starting from scratch. The number of users who can log in at the same time is controlled from the **Licenses** section of the Remote Desktop subscription.

### Templates for reuse

If you set up similar environments for several clients, the **server templates** let you reuse a base configuration and deploy consistent environments, without redoing the work every time.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.plenit.com/docs-en/productos/remote-desktop/concepts/size-your-environment.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
