  • 1.  Secondary Hubs Hardware Requirements

    Posted Oct 18, 2017 06:47 AM

    Hello!

     

    What are from your experience the hardware requirements for a secondary hub which will manage about 50 robots? What about 100 robots?

    Thank you!

    Hi 

    There are some good guidelines here

    Hello, thank you.

    Yes, I already read that. But it's not very clear to me.

    "

    • If the Secondary Hub manages a small number of robots (for example, for a remote subnet with limited components to monitor), less powerful hardware can be used."

    Does that mean that for 50 robots 8 GB of RAM will be required, as for the primary hub - small deployment?

    6GB- 8GB should be good starting point .It  depends on how much data is being sent to the hub by the robots which in turn depends on the probes configured on the robots 
    The hardware configuration that works today can require growth in the future. Take forecast growth into consideration when planning your hardware requirements.

    We want to implement multy-tenancy and for that as I found out we need to configure a secondary hub for each tenant. I'm trying to understand if we can use the existing hardware for that.
