❖ The above-mentioned configurations are minimum required configurations for optimal performance of Production environment for
R2024x
❖ Assumptions considered for Users and Data Volume is as below
❖ Initial set of users 25 Non-CAD User and 50 Total user for 4-5 Years
❖ DB Data Volume considered as 10gb
❖ The resources of all the servers needs to be monitored regularly and it is recommended that the hardware resources utilization
should never go beyond 75%-80%. Such scenarios needs to investigated and if required, additional hardware resources should be
deployed.
❖ DSLS can be installed on physical machine (single or cluster of three machines) with minimum configuration of – 4 Core, 8 GB
RAM, 3.4 GHz processor
❖ The FCS (File Collaboration Server) is not recommended because it has single central site.
❖ The mentioned cores are physical cores.
