# System Requirements

## Overview

Before G360 can be installed, your organization must provide a server or virtual machine (VM) that meets the required system specifications.

These requirements are typically handled by your organization's infrastructure or IT team.

## Server Requirements

G360 requires the following minimum system resources:

| Resource | Minimum  | Recommended |
| -------- | -------- | ----------- |
| CPU      | 4 vCPU   | 4 vCPU      |
| Memory   | 8 GB RAM | 16 GB RAM   |
| Storage  | 100 GB   | 200 GB      |

The recommended configuration is intended for production environments and organizations with higher usage requirements.

## Supported Operating Systems

G360 supports the following operating systems:

* Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
* Amazon Linux 2023

## Required Software

The G360 server must have the following software installed:

* Docker Engine 24 or later
* Docker Compose v2

Docker is used to run and manage the G360 application components.

## Server Access

The installation process requires appropriate access to the G360 server.

The installation engineer must be able to:

* Connect to the server using SSH
* Run commands with `sudo` privileges
* Manage Docker containers

## Time Synchronization

The server must have time synchronization enabled.

Your organization can use:

* NTP
* chrony

Accurate system time helps ensure that logs, background processes, authentication, and other G360 services operate correctly.

## Storage Considerations

G360 uses disk space for several components, including:

* Application container images
* Application logs
* Database data
* System updates

Make sure sufficient storage is available before installation.

<Note>
  If PostgreSQL is hosted on the same server as G360, additional CPU, memory, and storage capacity may be required.
</Note>

## Next Steps

After the server has been prepared, configure a hostname and secure access to G360.

Continue to [DNS and TLS](./dns-and-tls).
