The hardware that you need for your Identity Manager installation is governed by two factors:
Functionality that you want to implement
Size of your deployment
The following deployment types can help you estimate the size of the deployment.
|
Type Of Deployment |
Hardware Requirements |
|---|---|
|
Proof of Concept (demonstration) |
A single server deployment for use in demonstrations or basic testing in a development environment. |
|
Basic |
A multi-server implementation that is suitable for small to medium size implementations. This type of implementation requires one server for running Identity Manager Server and its components and two additional servers for running the Identity Applications and Identity Reporting components. |
|
Intermediate |
A high availability implementation that is suitable for medium size implementations. |
|
Large Enterprise |
A high availability implementation that includes Identity Manager engine cluster to provide failover capabilities and another cluster of Identity Applications and authentication service to support single sign-on access (OSP on Windows) and load balancing and fault tolerance. |
