Hardware Requirements
These requirements are only applicable for the server where Insights is installed. For users viewing Insights, a supported web browser is the only requirement.
Insights Server
Important!
Insights must be installed on its own machine, it cannot be co-hosted with Orchestrator.
Deployment Size | Small Scale (<1M Rows) | Medium Scale (1-20M Rows) | Large Scale(20-150M Rows) | Extralarge Scale(150-500M Rows) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
CPU | 4 Cores | 8 Cores | 16 Cores | 16 Cores |
System Memory | 16-24GB | 32GB | 64GB | 128-192GB |
Installation Directory | 20GB | 20GB | 20GB | 20GB |
Data Directory | 30GB | 100GB | 300GB | 700GB |
Processes/Queues (with Custom Fields) For All Insights Enabled Tenants | <=100 | <=500 | <=1000 | <=1000 |
Processes/Queues (with Custom Fields) Per Tenant | <=75 | <=75 | <=75 | <=75 |
Note: The sizing scale above refers to the total number of rows in the SQL database.
Important!
If the above Processes/Queues limits are exceeded, either per tenant or for all tenants, you must enable Table Grouping.
Insights SQL Server
Important!
Insights can be used with any SQL Server version supported by Orchestrator.
Note: If using SQL Server 2014 or earlier, all time fields will be in
UTCformat.
The Insights SQL Server hardware requirements scale in accordance with those of Orchestrator. For example, for development environments of 100 or fewer unattended Robots:
CPU (cores) | System Memory (GB) | HDD (GB) |
|---|---|---|
4 | 8 | 300 |
Software Requirements
Important!
Your Orchestrator and Insights products must be of the same version (e.g.
v2019.10.3).
Software | Compatible Versions |
|---|---|
Operating System | Windows Server 2016 - Windows Server 2019 |
Web Browser | Internet Explorer 11 |
Web Servers | IIS 10+ |
Web Server Modules | IIS URL Rewrite 2.1+ |
Frameworks | .NET 4.7.2+ |
Important!
If you are accessing Insights using Firefox and using a self-signed certificate, see Using Firefox for additional details on how to proceed.
Additional Considerations
FIPS
FIPS cannot be enabled on the server that Insights is installed on.
Antivirus Exclusions
Virus scans can result in performance issues when using Insights. To avoid this, it is recommended that you exclude the following from your antivirus software scans:
Category | Details |
|---|---|
Folders | C:\ProgramData\Sisense |
Services | Sisense.AdvancedFormula |
A script to automatically enable the above exemptions is available here:
- Copy the script and save it locally, for example
AVE.ps1. - Open Powershell console and change to the directory where you save the script.
- Execute the script with the command:
".AVE.ps1"
Important!
If you chose a custom build directory during installation, remember to modify the script to include the new folder. For example:
Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "$INSIGHTS_BUILD_DIR$"
