Sizing
The size of the hardware on which HyWorks is to be installed is determined based on the HyWorks components that are required to be installed and their performance, such as login time, device operations, and management console performance.
The tables below will help you estimate the size.

Note:
- The minimum recommended configuration for the HyWorks Controller is 4GB RAM/ 4 vCPUs, which can then be configured as required.
- The parallel user onboarding rate also affects the overall performance of the system, and thus, the login per second attribute must be considered during the planning phase. For deployments, having higher login per second, e.g., six users per second or greater, should consider having premium SSDs and higher resource configurations for database servers.
- It is recommended that VM Scale Booster be configured when Managed SHDs are more than 50 or powered ON DVMs are more than 500.
