Server/Client System Hardware

The sheet below will help calculate the amount of RAM and cores needed for the system to operate smoothly.

The linked Transaction Calculator will take your system statistics and tell you how what your size your system needs to be to work efficiently with Velocity, SQL and VWSC.

System Requirements

Before installing Velocity, make sure your server, workstation, and\or client computer meets the following requirements:

For Velocity Server:

• x64 3.40 GHz CPU (or equivalent)

• 32GB RAM (64GB RAM recommended for large systems)

• RAID 1 Configuration Recommended

• 1TB HDD (or equivalent)

• 1 Ethernet port

For Velocity Workstation and Client:

• x64 3.30 GHz CPU (or equivalent)

• 16GB RAM

• 512GB HDD (or equivalent)

• 2GB video card

• Speakers (recommended)

• 1 Ethernet Port

HINT: More RAM, a faster processor, and a faster video card with more video RAM are recommended and will improve performance for most applications; it will also help ensure long term compatibility with system expansion and upgrades to Velocity, the Windows operating system, and the SQL Server database.
