Saludos a todos, esto para los que entienden el español, también trataré de escribirlo en inglés. Necesito saber si alguno de ustedes, siguiendo ciertos criterios, ha hecho alguna justificación de los requerimientos de hardawre necesarios para instalar Koha. Es para proponer las características que debe tener un servidor en el que será instalado el sistema, en una biblioteca donde existen cientos de miles de registros bibliográficos y pueden estar conectados simultáneamente al sistema miles de usuarios. Les agradecería mucho a cualquiera que me responda o me de alguna sugerencia.
Hola, Edisnel. This is an english-speaking mailing list. I'll try and help you with your question (and I ask my fellow Koha mailing list partners to correct me if needed) Edisnel asks us about hardware requirements for a Koha system which will hold hundreds of thousands records and thousands of simultaneous users. Since Koha3, the upcoming version of the most famous and mature open source Integrated Library System, the system uses a dual-database model conformed by a relational database manager (MySQL, at the moment) and the Zebra search/indexing engine. This combination allows for tens of millions of records to be held and indexed in Koha3, while MySQL can only hold some hundreds of thousands and it lacks some special features (I believe transliteration, truncation and full-text search are some of them?) Regarding the simultaneous users, it's a matter of the application server (operating system, databases and the Apache web server), not the application (Koha) itself. There are some strategies to take into consideration regarding this, including clustering, proxying, etc. I'd go with a dual-processor server with at least 2 GB. RAM, and over 250 GB. of disk space in a RAID 1 array. Running Linux is a great plus, of course. Hope this helps, Jose -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIRcdRUWAsjQBcO4IRAu1zAKCEgsZYbzaqF4b/wqGTH9mKU/REXQCeJ9O+ dlfpDjkk/sPfz9My9egZq20= =2a00 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
