Installation into existing Kubernetes Cluster

If possible, we recommend installing our application into an existing Kubernetes or Red Hat Open Shift cluster.

Cluster Requirements

• Minimum Resources (to run the SaaS M resources equivalent):

  • 4 CPU

    • Intel Nehalem Broadwell (20082013) or newer

    • AMD Bulldozer Piledriver (20112012) or newer

  • 16 GB RAM

• Recommended Resources (To run the SaaS L equivalent):

  • 8 CPU

  • 32 GB RAM

• IngressController (should support SSL/TLS)

• SSL/TLS Certificates

• StorageClass (It must be possible to create Persistent Volumes)

• Space for Uploads and Media Files on volume(see Disk Space) Either:

  • On Persistent Volumes

  • On AWS S3

• External database: PostgreSQL 9.6 13 or later

• DNS

• SMTP Server

Installation on Bare Metal Server

Our application can be installed on any bare-metal server.

Bare-Metal server Requirements

• Minimum Resources (to run the SaaS M resources equivalent):

  • 4 CPU

    • Intel Nehalem (2008) or newer

    • AMD Bulldozer (2011) or newer

  • 16 GB RAM

• Recommended Resources (To run the SaaS L equivalent):

  • 8 CPU

  • 32 GB RAM

• SSL/TLS Certificates

• Space for Uploads and Media Files on volume(see Disk Space) Either:

  • On Persistent Volumes/local disk storage

  • On AWS S3

• Minimum 120 GB of disk space for the /root partition.

  • min 60 GB in /var/lib/

  • min 10 GB in /var/log/

  • min 10 GB in /usr/libexec/

  • min 20 GB in /opt/

• External database: PostgreSQL 9.6 11 or later

• DNS

• SMTP Server

Supported operating systems

• Ubuntu 18.04 /20.04 (Kernel version >= 4.15) or greater

• CentOS 7.4 or greater

• RHEL 7.4 or greater

Software Requirements

• Bash Version 4 or greater

• Root access (no shared instance)

Disk Space

Since the application deals with 3D Data and CAD files, a lot of data can be produced.
The media files are stored at a directory, which can be specified during the installation.

...

Also we support storing uploaded files on AWS S3.

Firewall requirements

The following Ports must be accessible:

...

An internet connection is not required.

Database Requirements

The Application requires a PostgreSQL 1113 database or later (Encoding UTF-8)

Details:

• The Application requires a separate PostgreSQL database server. 

• The application server needs read/write access to the database server, so any firewall between these needs to allow traffic (Default Port 5432)

• 3YOURMIND will and can not manage the database server for you. We will neither install a database server nor configure updates/replication of existing database servers. 

• Sizing requirements for the database heavily depend on usage. We recommend at least 20 GB for a production system. The database will grow slowly over time, so keep the disk space under monitoring. 

• If the database is installed manually:

  • It should be done on a separate server with at least 4GB RAM

  • The Application Server must be able to connect to the Database Server (Default Port 5432)

  • For installing PostgreSQL, please refer to the official Installation instructions or to an unofficial installation guide (recommended)

...

• On your database server, you will need to create one database and one user, which has read/write/drop/create rights on the said database.

• Set these variables for the application user on the database (exchange <dbuser> with your database username):

  Code Block
  language sql
  ALTER ROLE <dbuser> SET client_encoding TO 'utf8'; ALTER ROLE <dbuser> SET default_transaction_isolation TO 'read committed'; ALTER ROLE <dbuser> SET timezone TO 'UTC';

Machine Connectivity Requirements (optional)

Please see Machine Connectivity System Requirements.

Personal Requirements

To maintain a stable 3YOURMIND Application on the server, the following tasks need to be performed:
