Software and hardware requirements
Software Requirements
| Software | Version |
|---|---|
| Docker Engine CE | Docker CE 18.09.0 or above |
MobbScan uses Docker containers to distribute and deploy the solutions on-premise. The only software requirement is having a compatible Docker Engine installed on the server.
Hardware Requirements
MobbScan on-premise hardware requirements depends entirely on the specific use case to be implemented. Please review them with your technical contact to make sure everything is ok.
Having said that, the minimum hardware recomended for a project with the usual requirements is:
- Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-26XX v4 (or similar)
- 4 cores
- 16 GB RAM Standard setup (including all advanced ID card-related features) **
- 50 GB HDD/SSD
** 20 GB RAM. Standard setup + facial biometrics features.
These hardware requirements could host the solutions for a standalone (or develepment) environment, where the database could also be deployed as a container in the same server.
Production environment
It's recommended that the Production environment is deployed with fault-tolerance and high-availability.
The recommendation is to use the same server specs (software and hardware) mentioned before, but using at least two instances.
Distributed file system
MobbScan stored information on two different levels, database and filesystem. A distributed file system, such as NFS, is also required so every instance deployed in the high availability group could store and access the files/samples managed by MobbScan.
The amount of space to be provisioned depends on whether the images of the scanned documents must be stored and maintained in the MobbScan server or they should be deleted when the scan process is finished and stored elsewhere on the client's Documentation Management Systems.
| Nº of Scan processes | Size |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.5 MB |
| 100.000 | 50 GB |
This is just an estimation to showcase the amount of space for 100.000 document scan processes
If the documents are not stored on MobbScan then an NFS of 2048MB should be enough to handle the concurrent processes at any given time.
Database
Database should be installed in its own instance (and with fault detection and recovery mechanism if possible).
- Initial database size is ~50MB
- Each new document scan adds ~0,2KB
