Container orchestrator / cluster with Windows node support

Container Orchestrator

Any existing modern OCI-compliant orchestrator with support for Windows nodes and workloads

-or- Docker Swarm, to be replaced with a low-footprint Kubernetes distribution when ready


Windows Node Requirements

  • Windows Server 1809 (LTSC)

  • 8 Cores

  • 64gb mem

  • 250gb drive

Linux Node Requirements (May vary depending on optional components chosen)

  • Kubernetes standards

Ancillary Requirements

  • Log aggregation capabilities within cluster (for diagnostics and support)

  • Cluster monitoring

  • Git Repo (for customization management)

SQL Requirements (typically not containerized)


Processor


8 processor cores required, more recommended based on usage scenario.


Memory



64 GB required, more recommended based on usage scenario.

Disk

  • Fast SSD-Based Disks

  • Separate Drive for OS

  • Separate Drive for Application

Note

Each SQL server should follow Microsoft’s best practice design, utilizing different disk spindles for OS, Logs, Data, and backups. At a minimum, EmpowerID needs the log drive and data drive to have the below available space. Depending on the number of objects in your environment, disk space needs may be significantly higher.

  • Log Drive: 200 GB. This is to accommodate large transaction log growth in the event of extended processes.

  • Data Drive: 200 GB. We anticipate the database will be 5-10 GB on initial creation. The growth rate will depend on actual use and transaction level.
