Deployment Prerequisites

Reference Specification

The two-server deployment requires one Windows server for applications and one Linux server for the database. Both physical machines and virtual machines are supported.

Notes:
1) The required hard disk space must be exclusively reserved for NetBrain. For better performance, MongoDB Server is recommended to be installed on a machine equipped with Solid State Drive (SSD), or Hard Disk Drive (HDD) RAID-10.
2) Individual Front Server is supported on both Linux and Windows Server, including 2008 R2 SP1, 64-bit.
