System requirements

Overview

The topics covered in this section cover a wide range of system requirements. They include database sizing and setup, certified stack, operating systems, application servers, databases, repositories, and browsers.

Tuning tips - System requirements
  • Database

    • Run fully redundant configurations where an independent database backs each Magnolia instance.

      If running all instances against a single database instance, use different table spaces or prefixes for tables used by different workspaces. In this case, you must configure the database for high availability.
  • Resources

    • It would be best if you didn’t try to exceed your available resources during configuration, as this may cause additional I/O operations. We encourage you to adapt your settings to the resources available in your environment.

    • Suppose you need to check a performance issue on one of your servers. In that case, you can enable the flight recording mechanism using the flags -XX:+FlightRecorder -XX:StartFlightRecording.

    • Fill out the License Estimation Questionnaire to get more information about server sizing.

  • Memory

    • The minimum memory requirement for good performance in a production environment on an author instance is 4GB to 12GB. Having between 4GB and 10GB is recommended for a public instance.

      For more, see RAM.

  • Compatibility

    • Ensure your operating systems, Java version, application servers, databases, repositories, and browsers are supported.

      For more, see Certified stack.
