 * Hi
    I want to install WP multisite on a linux server. I’ll have only few sites,
   with around 15 plugins. A few thousands of users.
 * I’d appreciate recommendations for the configuration:
    1. What operating system?
   which version? 2. How much RAM should be? 3. How many CPUs? 4. Any other thing?
 * Thanks,
    Asaf

 * Hi,
 * You don’t need to worry about hardware and operating system unless if your websites
   attracts lost of traffic everyday.
 * Your server should meet the required WordPress requirements given on the following
   link.

 * Hi,
 * You can use the following.
 * 1. What operating system? which version?
    latest Linux Version will do.
 * 2. How much RAM should be?
    Considering your plugin count and future content/
   plugin update 2GB ram would be more than enough.
 * 3. How many CPUs?
    Well not sure about this, but one would be enough.
 * 4. Any other thing?
    Just make sure you meet the php and mysql version required
   for wordpress as mentioned in the following link.
