Hardware requirements
The system on which you want to run Infrahub, has to meet the following hardware requirements:
| Level | CPU Cores | RAM | Storage / database (Neo4j) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimum | 6 | 12GB | SSD and/or >= 5000 IOPS |
| Recommended | 8 | 16GB | SSD and/or >= 5000 IOPS |
If you only want to give Infrahub a try, or follow the getting started tutorial, then you can use GitHub Codespaces as an alternative.
Performance benchmark utility
To evaluate the performance of your system, we provide a small utility that will run some performance benchmark of your system's CPU, Memory and disk IOPS.
note
Even with the right amount of CPU core and memory, there are some other factors that could impact the performance of Infrahub like the speed of your CPU.
The tool can run on any system using docker with the following command docker run --pull always --rm registry.opsmill.io/opsmill/bench
❯ docker run --pull always --rm registry.opsmill.io/opsmill/bench
