There are three main requirements to run Aestiva Procurement:
1. You need a copy of Aestiva HTML/OS for your server
1. (HTML/OS runtime edition is included with purchase)
2. You need a web server account.
3. You need an active cgi-bin in the account.
Aestiva HTML/OS runs on in-house servers, shared hosting accounts,
and co-located servers. Requirements for operating on intranets, shared accounts, and co-located (dedicated) servers are described below.

OPERATING AESTIVA PROCUREMENT ON INTRANETS
|
If you are running your own computers (Linux, MacOS X, Windows NT/2000/2003, etc.) then you can run Aestiva Procurement.
You will need a web server. Use any CGI 1.1 compliant web server (such as Apache, or IIS). Once your web server is set up you can install Aestiva HTML/OS, the engine that runs Aestiva Procurement. No database engine is needed since Aestiva HTML/OS includes a maintenance-free, high-performance
database engine. Once HTML/OS is installed other components are
added using the browser-interface built into HTML/OS.
No additional software or hardware is needed. No additional RAM is needed.
|
|
OPERATING AESTIVA PROCUREMENT ON SHARED ACCOUNTS |
If you wish to run Aestiva Procurement on a shared account at a hosting provider that provides CGI access, then you will most likely be able to run it.
Installing Aestiva HTML/OS does not require any server configuration and in general, no communication or support from your server administrator or hosting provider.
|
The HTML/OS engine can operate with as little as twenty (20) Megabytes of RAM. Virtual hosting accounts rarely place limits below this level so if you are operating at a virtual hosting account, it is unlikely you will run into RAM limitation problems.
Recommended minimum RAM on a stand-alone server is 500 Megabytes.
|
We recommend you operate in accounts with at least 500 Megabytes of space.
|
Aestiva HTML/OS has built-in cgiwrap to protect hosting providers, built-in security so users of Aestiva Procurement cannot access other parts of the web server, and low CPU overhead to ensure CPU resources are not overused.
|
|
OPERATING AESTIVA PROCUREMENT ON CO-LOCATED WEB SERVERS
|
If you are running a co-located web server then you can operate Aestiva HTML/OS.
Most co-located web servers come pre-installed with an active CGI 1.1 compliant web server (Such as Apache, IIS, etc..). No additional software or hardware is needed. No additional RAM is needed to operate Aestiva HTML/OS.
