Hardware Recommendation NAV 2018

Assumptions. 1. Up to 25 Concurrent Users 2. Medium transaction volume. 3. The Servers will be for NAV only.

NAV Network Topology NAV will use an Application Server to serve the NAV application internally and externally. NAV will not be installed on the SQL Server

SQL Server If self-service BI on SharePoint or PowerPivot is required then SQL Server Enterprise Edition would be required.

Installation Requirements To install NAV UXC Eclipse will need the following

1. Remote Desktop Access using a Windows Login with Local Administrator permissions, to the SQL Server, the NAV Service Tier server and Terminal Server if one is required.

2. Sysadmin access to the SQL Server 3. A domain account to run the NAV service tier under that can read and write public

information in Active Directory.

PayGlobal Minimum Server Specifications

It is assumed that the Office of Auditor General has agreed and implemented the minimum

hardware configuration for the system as recommended by DXC Eclipse.

The procurement, installation, support and maintenance of the hardware and operating software are

the sole responsibility of Office of Auditor General.

Support for the network, hardware, and operating system software including all versions of

Windows, Microsoft SQL and establishment of internet/fixed connection and availability is the

responsibility of Office of Auditor General.

Assumption:

PG is installed on the server in Office of Auditor General and is accessed via the Local Area Network.

Bandwidth and network requirements

The following should help with estimating the bandwidth required between ESS users (browser) and

the ESS web UI.

This information is based on the following assumptions:

• An average page load of approximately 250 KB (this is a pessimistic average for ESS 4.0)

• A typical user generates about 10 interactions (page loads) per hour

• About 10 percent of a company’s users will be active at the same time
