Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application Requirements
Software, hardware, and configuration requirements for Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application
You can install Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application as a single-server, or as a multi-server, load-balanced server farm. You can use physical servers or virtual machine instances, but we recommend not installing any other heavily used server applications (such as SharePoint or SQL Server) on the same server as the Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application. Do not install on a domain controller server (We do not recommend it if you are exposing it to the WAN as it is a "security risk". If it will be used only on the LAN and not exposed to WAN then it should be okay)
NOTE: We do not recommend deploying our web application on a server running Active Directory, Share Point or SQL Server. For WAN deployment, we advise that you consult with a network security firm to help reduce the risk of possible attacks on your IIS server. Microix HTTP Email Approval is an ASP.NET application utilizing .NET framework 4.6 or higher. Additionally, for WAN deployment, we recommend placing your IIS server in a DMZ as it adds an extra layer of security between the exposed server and your intranet.However, you will still need to configure your firewall to allow the IIS server access to your intranet SQL server where Microix databases resides.
(IMPORTANT! After installing Microix on your SQL server, we recommend editing the security role by limiting our SQL account "microixsysadmin" only the Microix and MIP databases.. However, make sure to give read/write access to all MWFM databases and MIP database.)
Component /Minimum requirement
Processor
· 64-bit, 2-4 cores for small deployments (fewer than 1,000 users)
· 64-bit, 4+ cores for medium deployments (between 1,000 to 5,000 users)
RAM
· 16 GB for small deployments (fewer than 500 users)
· 16+ GB for medium deployments >500
Hard disk
· 80 GB for system drive
Operating System
· The 64-bit edition of Windows Server 2012 Standard, Essentials or Datacenter
Firewall requirements for Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application
Make sure the following ports aren’t blocked by firewalls on either the server that runs Workflow Modules Cloud Companion Application or the load balancer:
· Port 443 for HTTPS traffic
· Port 80 for HTTP traffic
· Port used for private traffic between the multi-server farm
Web browser requirements
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0 or higher or HTML5 compatible browsers. Use SSL certificate on the IIS server if exposing the server to the WWW.
At least Windows Internet Explorer 11 Microsoft Edge
Firefox 67.x Google Chrome 76.X
