Collabora Hardware Recommendations¶

Calculating the hardware requirements for a deployment of Collabora Online requires several factors:

Usage factor¶

This is what proportion of users are expected to be using Collabora Online at any given moment vs. other tasks such as E-mail and/or web browsing. A conservative value here for enterprise users would be a 50% usage ratio. For a large scale hosted solution focused on E-mail, the usage ratio can be as low as 1 to 2%.

Viewers vs. Editors¶

This gives an indication of the work-load likelihood. Again a conservative enterprise user value would be 50% viewing, 50% editing, whereas for a hosted, E-mail focused solution the viewing proportion could easily be over 90% viewing, 10% editing.
