General Hardware Requirements
The Codebeamer installation kit contains all components (database, web-server) required for evaluation. For information related to software, platforms, and databases, see the PTC Release Advisor.
For additional information see page Installing Codebeamer.
Hardware Requirements
Storage
SSD or M2 (preferred) disk with RAID is strongly recommended for best performance and reliability. 30-50 GB for database storage and 100-500 GB for documents, attachments and SCM repositories. The size of the required storage strongly depends on the size of documents, attachments and SCM repositories managed by Codebeamer.
CPU / Memory
Multicore 2.9 GHz Intel Xeon (x86) architecture).

* 
Active/concurrent Users refers to the number of users which are actively (concurrently) working in Codebeamer at a given time. For example, creating, editing Work Items, adding Comments and/or other artefacts. The number of registered users (accounts) may be a much higher number than the number if concurrent users, so this guidance should be used to refer to the total number of expected active (concurrent) users.
Network
For network connections between the Codebeamer ALM server and the database, low latency time connection (less than 1 ms.) and at least 10 GB network bandwidth are required.
Performance Measurements
Refer to Codebeamer ALM's Official Scalability Performance Test Report 2019 about performance measurements with up to 1,000 concurrent users and 10 million work items.
