Server specifications for private XTM Cloud
The server specifications will depend on the expected number of concurrent users. XTM should be installed on bare metal servers with the minimum specifications shown below.
Number of concurrent users | <=10 | <=20 | 21-75 | 75+ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Instance type | Test | Production | Production | Production |
CPU Cores per machine | 4 | 8/16 | 12/24 | Has to be determined individually |
RAM (GB) per machine | 32 | 128 | 128 | Has to be determined individually |
Disk space for active projects files | 1TB | 1 TB | 2 TB | Has to be determined individually |
File system | XFS | XFS | XFS | XFS |
Disk IO (Bytes) Random Reads/Writes | 10/10 MB/s | 10/10 MB/s | 20/20 MB/s | 50/50 MB/s or more |
Number of machines in cluster | 1 | 1 | 2 | Has to be determined individually |
OS - 64-bit versions | Linux | Linux | Linux | Linux |
Linux distro | CentOS/Redhat 7 | CentOS/Redhat 7 | CentOS/Redhat 7 | CentOS/Redhat 7 |
Storage requirements depend on the number of active and archived projects, source file types, size of source files, and size of TM. Servers must have SSD drives and an XFS file system for active projects and the database. Archived projects can either be stored on magnetic drives or, for additional cost, sent to Amazon S3 storage.
Partition layout:
Partition | Size | Filesystem | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
root | 50GB | XFS | SSD |
XTM data | 1 TB or more | XFS | SSD |
Backup | 2 TB or more | XFS | HDD |
Note
At least RAID 1 data protection is required.
For XTM version over 12.7 Java 11 or later
Applications Libre/Open Office v 4.0 or later
Database: PostgreSQL 12 or later
Apache Tomcat 8 or later
The server network should include a firewall
XTM International offers a content delivery network to improve global access and load balancing for large installations
Within the server cluster, including the database server, a minimum 1 gbit local network is required
Server bandwidth: Greater than 10Mbit/s depending on the number of concurrent users
User bandwidth: 2Mbit/s or better
