System requirements
System requirements, software prerequisites, and other recommendations are described in a separate document "System Requirements" (but probably not as elaborate as in that document)

|---|---|---|
| CPU cores | 4 | 16 |
| RAM | 8GB | 16GB |

SQL Server can also be installed in a separate machine. The requirements for the computer hosting only SQL Server are the following:
| Component | Minimum | Suggested |
|---|---|---|
| CPU cores | 4 | 8 |
| RAM | 8GB | 16GB |
| Disk | 250GB HDD | 500GB SSD |
| Network interface | 100MBps | 1Gigabit |
Additional comments regarding SQLServer
SQL Server Express can also be used but poses two limitations which have to be taken into account:
- The maximum database size cannot exceed 10GB.
- Only one CPU core is used to execute queries.
Installation on an AWS Virtual Machine
* EC2 requirements, * RDS requirements, * store slides on local hard disk (additional partition configured on the EC2 instance) on S3 bucket storage?
Installation on an Azure Virtual Machine
* VM requirements * SQLServer requirements * store slides on local hard disk (additional partition configured on the EC2 instance) on Azure (blob/table/data lake?) storage?
