Hardware Requirements

MetaMiner Server and MetaMiner Administrator

It is recommended to install MetaMiner Server on a dedicated server and access it remotely using Remote Desktop.

The hardware required to run MetaMiner Server depends on a number of users (concurrent requests) and your business data size, as well as intensity and complexity of your operations. Here you will find general guide lines.

Minimum and recommended hardware requirements to run Server and Administrator components are listed below. For MetaMiner Enterprise Edition, use recommended parameters only.

Parameter

Required minimum

Recommended

Notes

CPU

Intel Core i5 2.6GHz

Intel XEON 3.3GHz or better

MetaMiner as a pure Java application can run on any hardware platform, 32-bit or 64-bit, provided that the JDR/JRE requirements are satisfied (see Software Requirements).

However, Infolytik only tests and officially supports MetaMiner Server running on Intel Core/Xeon x86-64 second generation and later processors.

Installers are provided only for this instruction set.

RAM

4GB total,
1GB dedicated to JVM

16GB ECC DDR3 total,
4GB dedicated to JVM

See How to Determine Minimum Requirements for the information how to determine RAM requirements more precisely.

See Configuring MM System Service for the information how to adjust RAM dedicated to MM system service JVM.

HDD free space

600MB for binary files

600MB for binary files + 20GB for data
RAID
fast 7200 rpm or SSD drive

Minimum requirements assume MMDB is located on another host than MMS.

Recommended parameters can be used if MMDB is located on the same machine.

See How to Determine Minimum Requirements for the information how to determine HDD requirements for MMDB more precisely.

NIC

Ethernet 100MBit

Ethernet 1GBit


Hardware virtualization

Hyper-V, Parallels, Oracle VM, and others

Supported to run MetaMiner Server on guest operating systems.

However, MetaMiner will not perform well in a tightly constrained, shared environment or on a virtual server.
