The following examples represent possible hardware configurations based on the number of users. For each configuration, the following hardware specs should be treated as minimum requirements.
This section includes Hide
This represents a configuration where the Application Server, Database Server, and Reporting Services are installed on the same server.

Processor
Dual Quad Core processors that are server class. (For example, do not use older model processors such as: Intel Xeon X5450, 2x6 MB Cache, 3.0 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB, which was discontinued in 2010.)
Memory
16 GB @ 667 MHz (or faster) RAM
Hard Drive
15K RPM Primary Hard Drive, 80 GB Available Operating Free Space
Network Connection
Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter (NIC)
This represents a configuration where the Application Server is on one server while the Database Server and Reporting Services are installed on the second server.

Memory
16 GB @ 667 MHz (or faster) RAM
Note: If you are using a shared database server, it is critical that it have enough RAM. Due to the number of users and the high dependency on FASTER for work tasks and reporting, FASTER is often the most intensive database on a shared database server. Therefore, for a shared database server, we recommend a minimum of 32 GB RAM or more.
Hard Drive
15K RPM Primary Hard Drive
Network Connection
Gigabit Ethernet Network Adapter (NIC)
This represents a configuration where the Application Server, Database Server, and Reporting Services are all installed on separate servers.
