@phildunlap said in Mango hardware configuration:
'm not sure what protocol you'll be performing this transport with, and you didn't specify the update rate either. Still, 10 sites * 100 points/site comes out to only 1000 points which is a pretty standard / low load, and I would think almost any multicore, 2GB+ RAM computer could handle it. If you perform a lot of analysis or reporting on these points at your central computer, that could require more power in the machine.
If you haven't seen it, a MangoES (http://infiniteautomation.com/index.php/hardware) is a really good value and could probably handle what you are describing, but if the whole setup will grow (more sites, more analysis in central, etc.) then you may wish to get an enterprise license so that you can transfer it if you need to upgrade your hardware at any point.
Hello phildunlap,
the protocol is Modbus/TCP and the controls are about every 60 seconds.
I saw MangoES but I prefer to start with a physical server because there is the opportunity to go in the next future on a cloud server.
Based on your experience could fit an Ubuntu server with 8GB of RAM, 1 CPU with 8 cores and 80GB HD.
Best Regards, Luigi
