CA Identity Manager Implementation Guide - CA Technologies

Decide Hardware RequirementsDecide Hardware RequirementsThe hardware that you need for an Identity Manager installation depends on thefunctionality that you want to implement and the size of your deployment.The following sections describe typical Identity Manager implementations andtheir required hardware.Deployment TypesWhen planning the hardware needed for a CA Identity Manager deployment,consider the features that you want to implement and the initial size of thedeployment. Use one of the following categories to estimate the size of thedeployment.Note: The deployment type you select determines the size of the DxGrid file thatis used by the Provisioning Directory. You specify the deployment type when youinstall the Identity Manager Server.DemonstrationBasicA single server deployment for use in demonstrations or basic testing in aDevelopment environment. A demonstration deployment supports up to10,000 provisioned accounts.Note: This implementation type does not support productionimplementations.A high availability implementation that is suitable for most small to mediumsize implementations. A basic implementation supports up to 400,000provisioned accounts.This type of implementation requires two servers for running the IdentityManager application and its components and two servers for running theIdentity Manager database and the user store.52 Implementation Guide
