Server Specification
The entire Sewio RTLS system is managed by the RTLS Studio SW. The RTLS Studio also provides interface (data) for other systems that can cooperate together with the Sewio RTLS system and create applications based on the provided data.
Adequate server performance is needed to ensure that the RTLS works properly.
The minimum required computing power depends on the number of tags and their refresh intervals, but also on the number of anchors.
Therefore you need to choose a server configuration that will assure necessary computing power.
Usually, RTLS Servers are virtualized (on very powerful servers) or provided by local vendors. For the RTLS system, it is very important to have enough powerful CPU on the server. It is important to have a strong single thread rating but also enough threads because RTLS Studio is a multicore application.
Here is a table with installation size and recommended CPU model and its rating from benchmark tests.
Installation Size | CPU Model | CPU (Cores/Threads) | CPU Single Thread Rating | CPU Rating | Recommended RAM |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
< 10 Anchors, < 10 Tags with 100 ms RR | (2/2) | 1241 | 1341 | 4 GB | |
> 10 Anchors, > 50 Tags with 100 ms RR | (6/6) | 1115 | 4778 | 8 GB | |
> 100 Anchors, > 50 Tags with 100 ms RR | (6/12) | 2756 | 13564 | 16 GB | |
> 200 Anchors, > 200 Tags with 100 ms RR | (16/32) | 2736 | 42057 | 32 GB | |
> 500 Anchors, > 200 Tags with 100 ms RR | (32/64) | 2290 | 53478 | 64 GB |
