Scaling - NodeBB Documentation
If your site contains a lot of user data such as images you may want to consider using a plugin that would offload that content to a 3rd party provider such as Imgur or Amazon S3. Plugins exist for NodeBB for both of those services.
Advices to scale NodeBB for a growing (big) number of visitors ?

Hi! I'm a long time user of NodeBB (since 2014) and my forum has seen a sharp rise in use this year (with the growing cryptocurrencies field)
(it's cryptofr.com)
I think you don't see that everywhere:
Yesterday we had an epic all-time high of 16 000 unique visitors
It's really great but I see that the forum is getting slower and slower.
We are on a server with 8 GB Ram
Do you know of some possibilities to keep its rapidity ?

If you want to spend less money, Mongo is a wise choice with few drawbacks. Otherwise with added content you'll have to add more and more RAM for Redis to work.

I know historically NodeBB offered a paid migration from Redis to Mongo, is that still the case?

That is the case.

I have no problem with investing more money, so I will stay with redis. Thanks for the advice
(the good part of having invested in crypto in 2014)
