- If the customer is providing a filtered data feed, one IEM Server can normally support up to about 150 concurrent users. If there is a substantial amount of filtering required in the IEM Server, fewer concurrent users may be supported on one interface engine. Another parameter to evaluate is the number of messages per day. If there is a need to parse in excess of about 50,000 messages a day, additional IEM Servers may be needed.
