Installing Spectrum Platform and Spectrum Spatial Analyst on the same Server

If you are installing the Spectrum Platform with Spectrum Spatial Analyst, please ensure that sufficient memory is available for both.

We recommend a minimum of 20 GB RAM. The default memory usage settings for the major components are as follows:

  • Spectrum Platform uses up to 8 GB of memory for its internal processes (4 GB for the wrapper, 2GB for the Neo4J internal database and 2GB for ElasticSearch)
  • Spectrum Spatial uses 2 GB as a minimum
  • Spectrum Spatial Analyst will use 3 GB as a minimum
  • You will also need sufficient memory available for the system and other processes.

The minimum processor cores we recommend in this scenario is 8 cores.

Note: If other Spectrum Modules are also installed, such as Geocoding, then you will need sufficient additional memory for those in addition to the above.
