2.3. Hardware and Software Requirements #

Consider the following minimum hardware requirements when deploying Postgres Pro AXE:

  • For installing the Postgres Pro AXE DBMS:

    • 1 GHz CPU

    • RAM: 1 GB

    • Disk space: 1 GB

    Note

    Postgres Pro AXE supports using Postgres Pro Enterprise 17.7.1 as the DBMS.

  • For processing the OLAP workload:

    • 4 CPU cores

    • RAM: 16 GB

    • Disk space: 100 GB

Postgres Pro AXE cannot operate on virtual machines without vector CPU instructions, in particular SSE4.2 and AVX512F. Before installing the solution, ensure that the required instructions are installed on target VMs.

Example 2.1. 

To view available vector CPU instructions on operating systems similar to Debian, execute the following command:

grep -Eow "sse4_2|avx|avx2|avx512f" /proc/cpuinfo | sort -u

All four instructions must be in the command output.


Operating systems supported for the x86-64 architecture:

  • Debian 13

  • Ubuntu 24.04

  • Red OS 8

  • Astra Linux 1.8

  • ALT 11
