System Requirements
Overview
This document is intended for administrative staff, as a reference of the technical environment which supports the nFORM system. This document can be used as a reference of the technologies utilized and how they support the system and how they interact. It also details the environmental prerequisites to support an on-premises implementation.
Infrastructure
The primary goal of the nFORM application is to provide agencies with a scalable and reliable form management platform capable of adapting to the changing needs and requirements of each program.
The recommended agency infrastructure will be comprised of both test and production environments, hosted in an environment consisting of a web and database server. Distribution of the application infrastructure across multiple tiers, along with enterprise development practices, will assure the necessary system availability and minimize the system maintenance.
Deployment Requirements
To support the procurement process and to identify the physical hardware required to run the nFORM application, Windsor has developed the following hardware requirements based on load and data storage requirements. Note that Windsor also recommends the establishment of both TEST and PRODUCTION environments.
Note: Windsor recommends a separate servers for hosting the Application and Database systems.
Minimum Requirements
The system has the following minimal hardware/software requirements, based on anticipated concurrent users:
Concurrent Users | 0-50 | 50-200 | 200-500 | 500+ |
Application | Hardware: | Hardware: | Hardware: | TBD |
Database | Hardware: 4 Logical Cores @ 2.2GHz+ | Hardware: 6 Logical Cores @ 2.5GHz+ | Hardware: 8 Logical Cores @ 3.0GHz+ | TBD |
