System Requirements

To calculate the FindFace Security host characteristics, use the following requirements:

Requirement Description
CPU Intel Xeon E5 with AVX support or similar CPU. The own needs of FindFace Security require 2 cores. The characteristics also depend on the number of cameras in use. A single camera 1080p@25FPS requires 2 cores HT >2 GHz.
RAM The own needs of FindFace Security require 6 Gb. The RAM consumption also depends on the number of cameras in use. A single camera 1080p@25FPS requires 2 GB RAM.
HDD The own needs of the operating system and FindFace Security require 10 GB. The total volume is subject to the required depth of the event archive in the database and in the log, at the rate of 1.5 Mb per 1 event.
Operating system Ubuntu 16.04 x64 only

Note

The minimum configuration to process a video stream 1x720p (1280×720) 25 FPS is 6th generation INTEL Core i5 CPU with 4 physical cores 2,8 GHz, and 6 GB RAM.

Tip

To calculate the FindFace Security host characteristics, you can use the video processing benchmark results. The testing setup is 2 hosts with only one installed component video-worker that uses either CPU or GPU for video processing:

  • CPU i5-8400 : fullHD - 3 cameras (~33 FPS), 720 - 5 cameras (33 FPS).
  • GPU (1060Ti): fullHD - 10 cameras (35 FPS), 720 - 15 cameras (40 FPS).
