Meridian Application Server Requirements

These requirements are recommended for the following example environments:

  • Workgroup — 50,000 documents and 15 users, or for demonstration computers

  • Department — 100,000 documents and 30 users, or for demonstration computers

  • Enterprise — 500,000 documents and 150 users. Vaults stored in SQL Server or Oracle should not exceed 2 million documents. Vaults stored in Hypertrieve can accommodate many more documents and several hundreds of users.

The preceding examples are general guidelines only. Capacity and performance depend on the specific server configuration and are not guaranteed.

These specifications pertain to Meridian Enterprise only. Meridian can be one system within a larger computing environment that also includes Meridian Explorer, which can serve many times more users than Meridian Enterprise. For information about Meridian Explorer system requirements and deployment, see Meridian Enterprise Server System Requirements. For the best possible performance, see Hypercache. This specification is recommended for SQL Server or Oracle installations on the same computer with Meridian.
