Sizing

Server sizing to utilise Getvisibility products.

Note that any sizing provided can be subject to change due to environmental variables. Below we outline some of the variables that can affect the sizing:

  • Server resources. e.g. physical vs virtual, physical underlying CPU, RAM, and disc specs/speeds and whether they are shared or dedicated.

  • Network (speed, latency and throughput)

  • Geolocation

  • Specific location of server. (data center or Azure, AWS, GCP, etc)

  • Amount of Data

  • Data info (type, size, number of files, etc)

  • vendor throttling

Sizing may require adjusting once the platform is operational to meet data classification scanning speed requirements/expectations. Please note that scaling is not linear - you do not need to double the size of the server to double the speed. To double the classification throughput, you may only need to add an additional 2 CPUs and 6GB RAM.

If data/users spread across multiple geolocations a server per location is needed and then you need to size each server accordingly.

The below tables are for environments up to 25,000 users. If a sizing is needed for a larger environment please reach out to Getvisibility.
