This page describes how to install the module.
Prerequisites:
Before you install the Datamart, ensure that you have the correct hardware and software configuration.
Hardware Requirements
The Datamart can consist of multiple servers each with their own hardware requirements. This section outlines the minimum requirements you need to install the Datamart.
- Minimum 8 GB of RAM.
- Hard disk space – each server can have different requirements for hard disk space.
- Analytics database – you need to allow at least 20% more disk space for the Datamart Analytics database than you would normally allocate to your Analytics database.
- OLAP Cube database – the Datamart cube only requires about a third of the space you would normally allocate to your Analytics database.
Software Requirements
- Windows Server 2008
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 or SQL Server 2012, Standard or Enterprise edition, including the following additional components:
- Database Engine Services
- Analysis Services
Note
For best results, we recommend that you use a clean installation of SQL Server.
- Sitecore CMS 6.5 and DMS 2.0 or Sitecore CMS and DMS 6.6 running on Microsoft SQL Server
