Meshlets requires that you have the following system, network, and Java version specifications shown below.
System
| System Requirements | |
|---|---|
| Memory | 8GB+ |
| Processor Cores | 4+ |
| Hard Disk Space | 100GB minimum |
| Network Interface | GigE |
If deploying in an AWS environment, we recommend using a M5.xlarge EC2 general purpose instance with general purpose SSD (gp2) EBS volume type. Perspectium has tested using the M5.xlarge instance type though any system meeting the system requirements should be able to run the application.
For other cloud platforms, it is recommended to use the equivalent services to the aforementioned AWS services:
| AWS | Microsoft Azure | |
|---|---|---|
| Virtual Machine | m5.xlarge | Standard_D4_v3 (Dv3 and Dsv3-series) or Standard_D4_v4 (Dv4 and Dsv4-series) |
| Storage | general purpose SSD (gp2) | Standard SSD Managed Disks |
Network
Meshlets requires outbound access to the Perspectium Integration Mesh and its MBS cloud service as well as your ServiceNow instance. Your firewall settings will need to allow this outbound traffic in order for the meshlet to connect to our cloud service and your ServiceNow instance to properly read data.
The following ports are used by the meshlet:
| Network Requirements | |
|---|---|
| AMQPS Outbound Port | TCP/5671 outbound to your Perspectium MBS (amqps://example.perspectium.net) |
| or | |
| AMQP Outbound Port | TCP/5672 outbound to your Perspectium MBS (amqp://example.perspectium.net) |
| HTTPS Outbound Port | TCP/443 outbound to your ServiceNow instance |
Java
| Perspectium Version | Java 7 & earlier | Java 8 | Java 9 | Java 10 | Java 11 | Java 12 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gold |  |  | | | | |
NOTE: Perspectium's meshlets typically provide support for the latest version of Java with our next release that follows the Java version's general release date.
