System requirements for Central 4 and above

note

Jadu Central is tested and supported only on the versions listed in the table below. Any other versions that are not listed, including but not limited to Windows or SQL Server 'Service Pack' releases, are considered to not be supported.

warning

All infrastructure used to meet these minimum requirements should be dedicated to the sole purpose of running the Jadu Central application and it's required operating stack. No other application(s) should be implemented within this infrastructure.

Note: For WISP based implementations, the MS SQL Server component should be a lone database within the default (i.e not named) SQL Server instance to ensure that Jadu Central has a consistent pool of memory and CPU resources and allows instance-specific settings to be configured without impacting other databases.

Before you install Jadu Central, you must make sure that your system complies with the following requirements:
