Note: 

  1. Cloudmon Database can be installed along with the Server with same database system configuration.
  2.  For Deployments larger than 5000 nodes and High availability contact sales@veryxtech.com.
  3.  Cloudmon can be deployed on physical or virtual servers, whether on-premises or in the cloud.
  4. For comprehensive system requirements, please visit cloudmon-support.veryxtech.com.
  5. The listed minimum server requirements are based on a default configuration. Significantly increasing the monitors, or the frequency of statistic collection may add extra load to the server, which could necessitate a larger CPU or additional memory.
  6. The storage size required depends on several factors: the duration for which data is retained, whether debug logging is enabled, and the overall volume of data being stored.
