FTS Resources.

A knowledge base for Form-fillers and supervisors.

System Requirements
for Form Fillers

  • 2 processor cores
  • 8 GB of RAM
  • Up-to-date browser
  • Internet connection

System Requirements
for hosting Strix™ AML on-premise or in-cloud

Frontend Servers:

  • 2 processor cores
  • 4 GB RAM
  • 100 GB Storage (includes OS)
  • Operating system recommended: Windows Server 2019
  • Operating system minimum: Windows Server 2016)
  • ASP.Net Core Hosting Bundle 6.0

Backend Servers:

  • 4 processor cores
  • 16 GB RAM
  • 100 GB Storage (includes OS)Operating system recommended: Windows Server 2019
  • Operating system minimum: Windows Server 2016
  • ASP.Net Core Hosting Bundle 6.0

Database Server:

  • 2 processor cores
  • 16 GB RAM
  • Storage 50 GB minimum (dependent on supervisor’s collection of large document attachments)
  • Solid-state drives (SSDs) recommended for the storage of database files
  • DBMS recommended: Microsoft SQL Server 2022
  • DBMS minimum: Microsoft SQL Server 2016

All Strix servers are hosted via Internet Information Services (IIS) on Microsoft Windows. The Strix databases need to be hosted on Microsoft SQL Server. The databases of the SM and the DCM can be hosted on the same SQL Server instance.

FTS recommends using virtual machines (VMs) so that the power of these machines can be increased/decreased dynamically.

As the SM and the DCM are single page applications (SPAs), the requirements for processor and memory for the frontend servers are very low.  If the frontend server and the backend server of a module are installed on the same VM, only the hardware specification of the backend server needs to be considered.
