Anuview Flow has been tested and certified to support up to 1000 concurrent devices or up to 40k flows/s from < 20 devices.
Below we can see as more devices are added to the system, the supported flow rate decreases in proportion.
The server must support at least 300MB/s sustained for both read and write to support the peak device or flow count. Failing to do so will result in dropped flow details.
A base installation should have 4GB or RAM available for the OS and and additional 50MB per device to monitor. More ram will always improve performance e.g
Number Of Devices | Min Ram |
---|---|
10 | 4.5GB |
100 | 9GB |
500 | 29GB |
1000 | 54GB |
As Anuview Flow is based on the Postgres database, overall performance is also dependent on CPU performance.
There is little gain going beyond 8 cores however more powerful CPUs would provide a better experience. Intel XeonX5680 3GHz or Core i7-3770S 3GHz or better would be recommended as a minimum.
