Hey everyone

Probably you know about the performance issues of woocommerce. Still there are many larger shops (>1000 products) running on woocommerce successfully.

So, my question is how to setup woocommerce for a large scale shop? How to improve the performance?

Aside from obvious things like image compression, minifying, good caching and a dedicated server, what else can you do?

fast theme, cdn, very few plugin , remove unused scripts and style,
google:
how to setup "fast woocommerce"
also find out what plugins, theme and hosting those fast woocomerece store are using.
 
1,000 products is not a lot to warrant a dedicated server. You can get away with a $5 plan VPS from digitalocean, Cloudflare as the DNS and CDN, nginx on the web server, WP rocket, and Autoptimize.
 
I'd recommend a VPS that provides more CPU resources like vultrs high compute instances
 
theme is most imporant. 1000 skus wordpress can handle without issue. just find a server host that allows you to hot swap / automatically provision stronger server when needed or reaching limits, most providers offer this.
