For image processing, when identity authentication terminal detects a face and sends a result to FindFace Lite, server requirements are the following:

Devices Quantity	Physical Intel Cores >2.4 GHz	RAM, GB
1 – 8	4	6
8 – 16	4 – 6	8
16 – 24	4	8

HD (720p) live streams processing

For detection while processing HD (720p) live streams (20 FPS) server requirements are the following:

Devices Quantity	Physical Intel Cores >2.4 GHz	RAM, GB
1	4	8
5	8	10
10	14	16

FHD (1080p) live streams processing

For detection while processing FHD (1080p) live streams (20-25) FPS server requirements are the following:

Devices Quantity	Physical Intel Cores >2.4 GHz	RAM, GB
1	6	8
5	16	10
10	24	16
