Hardware acquisition plan
Acquiring hardware is a phased activity: buy hardware that meets minimal prerequisites or higher to acquire the Development and Testing machines; implement the product; and use your implementation to measure which (and how much) hardware to acquire for your Acceptance and Production machines.
- Hardware for Development and Testing environments
- When developing or testing your implementation of Tridion Sites, you can follow the guidelines for minimal hardware requirements. It is possible (though not recommended) to develop and test your implementation using a single laptop.
- Hardware for Acceptance and Production environments
-
Without a finished implementation of the product, it is impossible to know which hardware or how much hardware to acquire for your Acceptance and Production environments. This is because your specific implementation choices dramatically affect the performance. As a result, we recommend reserving a project phase in which you simulate a real-live production environment and measure its performance.
