InfoIcon  Virtual Workstation and SQL Server Setup for CloudNine LAW

CloudNine™ LAW Server Workstations (Phyical, VM, Cloud, where ever you want to install LAW)

The number of LAW workstations should reflect the number of users that that you want to have access to LAW at the same time. If you would like assistance determining this, please consult with your  Account Manager.

 

 

CloudNine™ LAW Turbo Server Workstations (Phyical, VM, Cloud, where ever you want to install LAW)

The number of LAW Turbo Servers needs to cover the number of Turbo Import, Turbo Imager and Turbo OCR agents that you wish to run.

 

Important

When it comes to Turbo Import and Turbo Imager, 1 Turbo worker = agent = 1 CPU core of a VM workstation.

Turbo OCR is on the workstation level. The ABBYY engine will use 1 licenses and all cores available. If you would like assistance determining this, please consult with your  Account Manager

The ratio of agent and RAM is for each agent you want to run, is a 1 to 4. i.e. for each core that Turbo is going to use, you should have 4gb or RAM. Also to note if you have 4 agents of Turbo the an 8 cores workstation is great.
 
 

CloudNine™ LAW SQL Server Recommendations

To avoid competition for resources, we recommend using separate SQL servers for LAW as follows: The equation below is to help build out or right size your LAW SQL server.

 

SQL Infrastructure – right sizing SQL, remember to add 1 core for the OS

 

Calculating LAW SQL Cores

At minimum – the Total Number of SQL Cores should = The # of total LAW instances* that can be communicating or interacting with SQL ÷ 3

oSome LAW components work at the CPU core-level and others at thread-level…these would be added together)

Calculating LAW SQL RAM – Note when RAM starts to go over 100gb it is more of a bell curve and must be adjusted by each environment.

At minimum – the Total amount of SQL RAM should = The # of total LAW instances* that can be communicating or interacting with SQL × 4

 

A base bones SQL server would be 4 cores and 16gb or RAM
