Requirements​

Before installing the system, review the following hardware and software requirements and make sure that they are complied with. Non-compliance of the minimum requirements might produce unacceptable performance and unsatisfactory user experience. A bad user experience is a potential issue that might lead to adoption resistance.

Hardware​

The minimum hardware requirements are:

  • Application/Database Server

    • Intel Xeon Quad-Core Processors or equivalent

    • 4GB Physical Memory

    • 500GB Hard Disk

    • 100Mbps/1Gbps Network Interface Card

  • Java SDK Version 1.6

  • MySQL 5.0

  • Server Operating System

    • Windows 2008 Server

    • Linux Server

  • Workstation Computers
