Installing a dedicated Kapua instance
- SolidRun
The documentation for SolidSense software is not maintained by SolidRun and the information herein is not actual with the latest version of the software, please contact our partner SolidSense Connect who is now developing the SolidSense software.
The SolidSense Kapua instance is not meant for production purpose, so we recommend the deployment of a dedicated instance when Kapua is to be used in production, in particular if data have to be stored in the Kapua database.
Installation procedure
Prerequisite for Kapua installation are the following
64 bit Linux system with minimum 6GB of RAM, we recommend 8GB, dual core system

Docker 1.2+
The system needs to be connected to the internet during installation.
