Requirements for single database servers used with myAvatar

Server Recommendations

Netsmart recommends at least two dedicated 64-bit servers for the recommended SANDBOX, BUILD, UAT and PRODUCTION environment installation of RADplus 2013.  Each SANDBOX, BUILD, UAT, or PRODUCTION environment requires either a dedicated server or virtual server.

It is recommended that Clients, who will support the Netsmart recommended four environment model, purchase one of the following:

  • Multi-server 64-bit platform independent Caché key
    • Netsmart recommends a multi-server key for shared usage between all environments and platform independence for potential future changes to the OS/bit set or existing mixed platforms to be supported between the four environments.
  • Multi-server 64-bit Caché key
    • If the client is confident their OS/bit set platform will not change in the future and their existing four environments will be on a single platform, then this solution still shares the license usage but does not provide platform independence.
  • Four individual 64-bit Caché keys – Platform independence will provide future migration to a different OS and/or bit set if necessary.
    • One key is for SANDBOX
    • One key is for the BUILD
    • One key is for the UAT
    • One key is for PRODUCTION
