Minimum Configuration Requirements
For software and hardware, the minimum configuration requirements for FSA are the same as those required for the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server. For more information on minimum system requirements for the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server, see Integrity Lifecycle Manager System Guidelines.
* 
FSA does not require an external database or a separate database server. FSA uses an internal database for caching.
FSA does not have specific communications requirements; however, performance of FSA may vary according to the limits of your communication systems. Generally, you can consider installing a proxy for any remote sites that have significant network traffic to the Integrity Lifecycle Manager server.
