Hardware recommendations

To be able to use the AI-Framework, the following hardware is recommended as a minimum.

Hardware for the developer

To develop software with the AI-Framework, including the use of the necessary software, the following hardware is recommended as a minimum.

AI-Framework

• To develop with AI-Framework, you need an IDE (like Microsoft Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider).
  To run this smoothly, it is convenient to have a i7 processor, 16 Gb RAM and 128 Gb free harddisk space.
• When the developer works on more than one project at a time, more harddisk space may be needed.
• See also Software requirements  .

Database

When deciding on the hardware, necessary for the database, the following considerations are suggested.

• The database can run on the same machine as the one that is used for the development of the software. It can also run on another computer or server.
• The size of the database partly defines the minimum requirements of the hardware. Three things are important to consider.
  • The number of tables and fields and relations and stored procedures.
  • The number of records in the files.
  • How frequently the software needs to acces the database.
  • The number of concurrent open connections.
• See also Software requirements  .

Other software

• Other decisions, whether or not to write software for a print queue and/or a mail server with a mailing queue, also influences the minimum requirements for hardware.
• When running Microsoft WCF, this software can be installed on the same computer or on another computer or server. This decision also influences the hardware choices.
