SwissWize Data Suite is a .NET 4.5.2 Application and with this, it should run on all machines where the Framework is installed. However, we have tested the Data Suite on several Operating Systems and with different Databases and can only guarantee compatibility with the components listed below:
| Component | Versions / Sizing | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Operating Systems | We have tested on English and German systems but it should also work on Servers running other languages. | |
| Databases | The amount of space needed for the Databases depend on the number of items to be crawled. You can estimate about 1.5 GB Database Size per 1 Million Items. | SwissWize Data Suite also works with SQL Server Express. However, Performance and Capacity are ruled by the limits of the Express Version. |
| Cockpit | Should have at least 2 GB RAM available for running performant. Approx. 200 MB of free hard disk drive. Minimal resolution is 1280 x 768 but we recommend 1920 x 1080 or higher. | |
| Inspector | The Inspector is a Windows Service and should habe at least 2 GB RAM available for running performant. | You can scale your environment with adding Inspectors sharing the work of crawling. You can only install 1 instance per Server. |
| Accounts | To discover Shares and to crawl the Shares you have to provide Accounts with the right permissions. You can set up different Accounts for different Shares. The Account running the Inspector Windows Service must have rights to start services on the local machine and must have rights to read and right to the databases SwissWize Data Suite uses. |
