OX App Suite Requirements - Open-Xchange supported components overview

The following table provides an overview about the supported components at the OX User Front-End, Connector for Microsoft Outlook and Connector for Business Mobility. This overview makes no claim to be complete.

Open-Xchange Server 6 overview tables about the supported components at the OX User Front-End, Connector for Microsoft Outlook and Connector for Business Mobility are available at OX 6 Requirements - Open-Xchange supported components overview

Information about Maintenance expiries of components, versions and browser support, can be found in the Maintenance Expires Table

Server Platform Requirements

General Assumptions

Open-Xchange App Suite Server (middleware services) is designed to run on physical servers or virtual machines of the same flavor. Cloud environments might be used in terms of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), meaning that all components need to be deployed in a classical manner on virtual machines.

This means in particular, but not only:

  • Infrastructure is "quasi-static". We don't need to take into account things like VMs coming and going dynamically, dynamic IPs, volatile ("ephemeral") data
  • "Database as a service" is not allowed. This typically is a highly customized "MySQL like" storage engine, and not a true MySQL, and we can't control flavor, version, setup, etc. If need for configuration changes is identified, we won't be able to change anything.

So to summarize: we expect any virtualized platform to behave and work just like a well-known non-virtualized / physical platform.

Especially we expect the virtual hardware to be not over-provisioned. Each VM must have dedicated resources with respect to CPU cores, RAM, IOPS, storage, network bandwidth, network latency, etc.

Network is expected to be flat, inside one datacenter, no multi-datacenter, no segments. No packet loss, low latency.

Disclaimer: All recommendations below are without guarantee and can differ for specific deployments. For mid- and large-scale setups a detailed deployment planning and sizing tests are mandatory and should be agreed on with OX Professional Services.

High Level Design / OS setup

Operate services separately (USM, Document/Image Converters) as described in Cluster Setup.

Clocks between all nodes must be synchronized (e.g. via NTP).

Open file/max process limits need to be adjusted properly. Based on the used Linux distribution and init system configuration will differ, see Resource Limits for further explanation.

Platform Architecture: 64 bit versions (x84_64) of the supported Linux distributions

Node Sizing

  • Max. 8 GB heap per JVM + 4 GB system memory for other daemons and the OS (buffers, caches)
  • 4 CPU cores (virtual, physical or hyperthreads)
  • Disk space
    • 5 GB for OS and software
    • 2 * system memory of free disk space (i.e. 12 GB RAM => 24 GB free disk space) for file spooling, log files, heap and core dumps

Untested/Unsupported Deployments

  • Changes to Garbage Collector settings
  • Running in containerized environments (Docker, rkt)
  • Elasticity/High velocity of nodes going up and down: Services are sometimes stateful and demand static configuration
  • Cloud platform services (PaaS) like database systems (for example AWS RDS)
  • Multi-site active-active

Software Requirements

Linux Distribution Supported Java Versions Supported Database
     
Suse Linux Enterprise Server 12 OpenJDK 7 MariaDB 10.0
