There are separate requirements for the server, workstations, and the optional Web Component. The data is stored on the server in Microsoft SQL Server. Titanium is only
compatible with Microsoft SQL Server and does not run on MySQL, Oracle, or other data repositories.
The hardware requirements for Titanium Schedule are very modest, and as you can see by the minimum required specifications below, almost any Windows-based
computer you can purchase today is more than adequate.
Server Requirements
The following requirements are for the computer running SQL Server which contains the data from Titanium Schedule. At some centers, the SQL Server is
installed on a university-hosted computer or the center's existing file server, so an additional computer is not required.
-
Desktop Operating System: Any recent version of Windows Desktop. (Windows 10 is the oldest acceptable version)
-
Server Operating System: Any recent version of Windows Server. (2012 is the oldest acceptable version)
-
Required Software: Any recent version/edition of MS SQL Server (2016 SP3 is the oldest acceptable version)
-
Hardware recommendations for your Windows server: Windows Server Catalog
-
RAM: 4 GB recommended (RAM is more important than CPU speed for performance)
- Disk Space:
-
Minimum of 600 MB for SQL Server installation. At a large center, the Titanium database will probably grow to 2-4 GB over a few years.
If the center is going paperless and scanning a lot of old documentation into Titanium, storage needs could be several times that large.
-
At least 400 MB for the shared application folder.
Workstation Recommendations
Each computer workstation that will be running Titanium Schedule will need the following:
-
Screen resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher.
-
Intel Pentium or compatible 1GHz or higher processor. (800 MHz or higher is supported but not recommended)
-
1GB Memory (512 MB is supported but not recommended)
-
Operating System: Microsoft Windows® 10 or later
-
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 or later
-
Disk Space: 200 Megabytes of available hard-disk space.
Web Component (Optional)
There are two available choices for the optional Web Component feature:
- Installed and maintained by your IT group on an IIS server on your campus
- Hosted by Titanium Software without the need for IT involvement
The requirements in the remainder of this section only apply if the Web Component is installed locally by your IT group.
The Web Component is an ASP.NET website and requires Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 8 or later with .NET Framework 4.8. The web server OS
must be Windows Server 2012 or later. The web server must also be able to access the SQL Server where the Titanium database is installed. The web server will use a
restricted account to access the SQL Server, and that account can only insert new records into the confidential tables. The account does not have the rights to view, update
or delete any confidential information.
To encrypt data traffic between the devices used by clients and the web server, a minimum of Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 is required.
Microsoft SQL Server version 2016 SP3 is the oldest supported SQL Server version. The SQL Server that hosts your center’s Titanium Schedule database must be updated with the latest
Microsoft SQL Server Service Pack. The preceding link
provides service packs for each supported version of Microsoft SQL Server.
Note: If you are a current Titanium customer who is considering adding the Web Component, your Titanium Schedule database version must be 150101 or newer.
