Requirements
------------

A first estimation of minimal required system resources are:
Geotrek is mostly a CPU-bound application due to the complex queries including geometric operations (such as intersection)
which are executed on the database. This is especially true in the setup with a Geotrek Rando v3 portal requesting
dynamic geometric data through the Geotrek API.

* 2 cores
* 4 Go RAM
* 20 Go disk space

For big instances required system resources are:
In such a configuration the required system resources should be:

* 4 cores
* 8 Go RAM or more
* 50 Go disk space or more (20 Go + estimated size of attached files like photos, including elements imported from SIT)

If spreading the components on multiple hosts keep in mind the bottleneck will most likely be the CPU and RAM at the
database server level.

Software requirements are :

* Ubuntu Focal Fossa 20.04 LTS. Server flavor is recommended but any other flavors work too (desktop…)
