Current System Recommendation

The following system recommendations are based on experiences with:

      Customers

      In-house testing

      Data provided by Microsoft

This recommendation is based on these experiences to make it as realistic as possible. However, parameters like available network bandwidth, hardware manufacturer and your specific workflow cannot be considered.

Note:

All recommendations are based on commercial PC's or servers, e.g. the following recommendations for hard disks are higher than needed to start with, especially in virtualized environments!

Possible Scenario for more than 20 users

To use Engineering Base with a high number of users (> 20) you are able to increase the performance, the data security and the availability by working with a 3 layer model. To make a realistic recommendation for this size of server please contact AUCOTEC.

 

SQL-Server

EB-Application server

EB-Clients

 

 

 

This is an example of the scalability of Engineering Base.
