Disk Space Requirements
A standard Caché installation that includes support for Caché Server Pages (CSP), needs
approximately 395 MB (megabytes) of disk space depending on the type of installation you
choose.
Supported Platforms and Web Servers
The latest version of Caché is supported on version 10.4 of the Apple Mac OS X operating
system, on both PowerPC and Intel. For Mac OS X, the Caché Server Pages (CSP) technology
