BillBery / System Requirements
Hardware Requirements
The following configurations will guarantee stable and failure-free production environment under mentioned circumstances. Please choose advanced configuration in case of high-load business model (RADIUS authorization + Dynamical Routing + peak volumes allowed by license). When choosing server hardware, please make sure that all components are compatible with recommended operating systems.
BillBery Small — up to 1.5 millon calls per month:
- CPU: Intel Xeon Dual Core 1.8Ghz (basic) or Intel Xeon Dual Core 2.4Ghz (advanced)
- RAM: 2 Gb
- HDD subsystem: 80Gb SATA II HDD (basic) or 120Gb SATA II HDD (advanced)
BillBery Medium — up to 9 millon calls per month:
- CPU: Intel Xeon Dual Core 2.4Ghz (basic) or Intel Xeon Quad Core 2.4Ghz (advanced)
- RAM: 4 Gb
- HDD subsystem: 160Gb RAID 1 SATA II HDD (basic) or 300Gb RAID 1 SATA II HDD (advanced)
- Hardware RAID controlled with 256+Mb of cache is recommended (for example, Dell PERC 6 controller)
BillBery Large — up to 35 millon calls per month:
- CPU: Intel Xeon Dual Core 3Ghz (basic) or Intel Xeon Quad Core 3Ghz (advanced)
- RAM: 8 Gb
- HDD subsystem: 300Gb RAID 0+1 SATA II (basic) or 300Gb RAID 0+1 SCSI (advanced)
- Hardware RAID controlled with 256+Mb of cache is required (for example, Dell PERC 6 controller)
BillBery Unlimited — unlimited traffic per month*1:
- CPU: Intel Xeon Quad Core 3+Ghz (basic) or Intel Xeon 2xQuad Core 3+Ghz (advanced)
- RAM: 16+ Gb
- HDD subsystem: 500Gb RAID 0+1 SAS 15kRPM (basic) or 1000Gb RAID 0+1 SAS 15kRPM (advanced)
- Hardware RAID controlled with 256+Mb of cache is required (for example, Dell PERC 6 controller)
*1 — the actual traffic limits depend on server hardware. With proposed specifications such traffic volumes are equal to over 600 million calls per month for basic configuration and over 300 million calls per month for advanced configuration.
Brand-name server configurations
Please note, that all brand-name configurations are considered to be advanced configurations.
