System Requirements

To calculate the FindFace Enterprise Server host(s) characteristics, use the requirements provided in this chapter.

Tip

Be sure to learn about the FindFace Enterprise Server architecture first.

In this chapter:

Basic Configuration

Important

If the resolution of a camera(s) in use is more than 1280x720px, it is strongly recommended to use the GPU-accelerated package findface-video-worker-gpu.

Note

When designing your system architecture in a cluster environment, bear in mind that the number of findface-tarantool-server shards on a single host must not exceed the number of CPU memory channels, multiplied by 2.

  Minimum Recommended
CPU Intel Core i5 CPU with 4 physical cores 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon E5v3 with 6 physical cores, or higher or similar CPU
The own needs of FindFace Enterprise Server require 2 cores HT > 2.5 GHz. The characteristics also depend on the number of cameras in use. A single camera 720p@25FPS requires 2 cores >2.5 GHz. AVX support
GPU (optional) Nvidia Geforce® GTX 980 4GB Nvidia Geforce® GTX 1080+ with 8+Gb RAM
Supported series: GeForce (Maxwell, Pascal, Turing, and above), Tesla (Maxwell, Pascal, Volta v100, Turing, and above)
RAM 10 Gb 16+ Gb
The own needs of FindFace Enterprise Server require 8 Gb. The RAM consumption also depends on the number of cameras in use. A single camera 720p@25FPS requires 2 GB RAM
HDD 16 Gb 16+ Gb
The own needs of the operating system and FindFace Enterprise Server require 15 GB.
Operating system Ubuntu 16.04 x64 only
