Platform Requirements and Third-Party Components
- If the Alfabet components are installed on the same host, the requirements of the component with the highest requirements apply. For example if the Alfabet Server and the Alfabet Web Application, both requiring 16 GB memory, are located on the same server host, the memory requirement is 16 GB for this host.
- The requirements are listed for use by up to 200 users. It is recommended to double the memory and CPU requirments if more than 5000 users are working with Alfabet. Please note in this context that load banancing for distribution of users among active installations is not supported. Load balancing is used to failover scenarios. You can use the active-passive loadbalancing mode to activate a fallback installation if the main installation fails.
