I want to host a SignalR MVC on Azure. I am doing a small chat app (Using Xamarin) for 4.000 to 5.000 users. Will have just ONE Big Group with all users and chats 1:1 if they want.
Looking at the internet, i did not find the answer for my question. What type of Azure Web App is enough for me ? The Standard 1 is ok ?

Thanks.

What I have tried:

It's not possible for anyone to answer this question. Only you can.

We know nothing about your code, how efficient it is, it's actual load at any one time, ... nothing.

This is where you spin a virtual machine, install your server on it, and build some load tests and see what it can do.

The beutiful thing about virtual machines on Azure is that you can upgrade them any time you want without having to rebuild the entire server. If a Standard A1 machine doesn't do it for you, you have two options. Either analyze your code and refactor to make it more efficient with system resources or upgrade the machine to an A2 or higher, whatever your server and load requires.

Agree with Dave...If you are not sure about expected load and sizing then better go for Azure Web APP.
