Introduction
This article outlines the system requirements for both using Kepion and hosting a Kepion environment, including browser compatibility, server specifications, and sizing recommendations.
Using Kepion
Kepion is compatible with all major modern browsers:
We recommend downloading the newest version of your preferred browser for the best experience.
Note: For all browsers, please enable JavaScript and cookies.
Hosting Kepion
A typical Kepion environment includes three core components:
-
Web Server
-
SQL Server (Relational)
-
SSAS Server (Multidimensional)
These components can be installed on a single machine (single-box setup) or across multiple machines (multi-box setup).
| Resource | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Operating System | Windows Server 2016 Standard or Datacenter Edition, or later x64 Architecture |
| Web Server | Microsoft IIS 7.0, or later |
| SQL Server (Relational) |
Version: Microsoft SQL Server 2016, or later Edition: Enterprise, Developer, Standard * |
| SSAS Server (Multi-Dimensional) |
Version: Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services 2016, or later Edition: Enterprise, Developer, Standard * |
* Learn more about the Kepion supported features for SQL Standard.
Kepion server sizing recommendations
Minimum single-box setup
This configuration is suitable for environments where Web, SQL, and SSAS servers are installed on a single machine.
| User Count * | CPU | Memory | SQL Edition | Disk (size, max IOPS, max throughput) ** |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-24 | 4 | 16 GiB | Standard |
128 GiB 500 (3,500) 100 MB/second (170 MB/second) |
| 1-99 | 4 | 16 GiB | Standard |
256 GiB 1,100 (3,500) 125 MB/second (170 MB/second) |
| 1-199 | 8 | 32 GiB | Standard |
512 GiB 2,300 (3,500) 150 MB/second (170 MB/second) |
| 1-1,999 | 8 | 128 GiB | Enterprise |
2 TiB 7,500 (30,000) 250 MB/second (1,000 MB/second) |
| 1-2,000+ | 16 | 256 GiB | Enterprise |
4 TiB 7,500 (30,000) 250 MB/second (1,000 MB/second) |
Notes:
* User count refers to supported planning users.
** Disk specifications apply to both data and log disks.
Minimum multi-Box Setup
This configuration is recommended for larger or high-volume deployments, where Web Server, SQL Server, and SSAS Server are installed on separate machines.
| User Count | Web Server | SQL Server (Relational) |
SSAS Server (Multi-Dimensional) |
|---|---|---|---|
| ≤ 70 users Small to Medium, limited data volumes |
4 processor cores 8 GiB memory |
4 processor cores 8 GiB memory |
4 processor cores 8 GiB memory |
| > 70 users Large, high data volumes |
8 processor cores 16 GiB memory |
8 processor cores 16 GiB memory |
8 processor cores 16 GiB memory |
