Client Side
Any web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari or Opera that has Adobe Flash Player plug-in version 7 or above.

Application Server
iDashboards is a J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) Web Application, and must be deployed to a J2EE-compliant application server that implements the Servlet 2.3 and JSP 1.2 or later specifications. The Apache Tomcat 5.5.15 (or above) application server is bundled with iDashboards, however it can also be deployed to IBM WebSphere, BEA Weblogic, JBoss, or a number of other J2EE application servers with the correct Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

Repository Database
An enterprise-class relational database, such as Oracle, SQL Server or DB2 is required, along with the correct JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) drivers. Regular backups of the repository database should be performed using the database vendor’s utilities.

Application Server Host Memory
1 GB RAM required, 2 GB recommended.

Application Server Host Operating System
Any server operating system for which the correct JVM is available should suffice. This would include, but would not be limited to, Windows, Solaris, Linux or AIX.

External Data Sources
Any relational database for which JDBC drivers are available can be used as an external data source to provide chart data.
