每秒解析托管和请求

Question

I have written a small website for a non-profit. The website handles about 500 visitors per day, the site is pretty simple. It uses ExpressJS and serves up .ejs files that are updated weekly. It does not have any user/admin login functionality and it does not save any data. The most it does is make a couple separate requests to the Parse Core to fetch some images, URLs, and other text. It also has a few forms that submit data using Mandrill.

First off, does serving up an .ejs web page constitute as a request?

Second, and I am probably being overly cautious, but I want to be sure that I can host this website using Parse and maintain the Free pricing plan at 30/req per-second. Do you think I can?

Let me know if I can be more specific with my description of how the website is setup.

Answer 1

had the same question. Parse.com team told me they are only counting API requests against the 30/req limit not hosted file requests. Otherwise it wouldn't make sense anyway as any web site request would trigger several more requests to images etc.
