System Requirements

In addition to the information below, ReliaSoft provides an automated tool that determines whether your computer and Internet connection meet the requirements for running and activating Synthesis. It will also determine whether you could install the 64-bit version of Synthesis, if desired. [Download Requirements and Compatibility Test Tool...]

Operating Systems

32- and 64-bit versions are supported, except where noted. [See our 32-bit vs. 64-bit FAQ...]

Note: Upgrading your operating system after Synthesis has already been installed can cause issues with the activation. To prevent this, it is recommended to uninstall Synthesis prior to upgrading your operating system and then reinstall it after the upgrade. For other options, and for information about how to handle the "activated license is corrupt" message that may appear if you upgrade your operating system with live activations, please refer to http://www.reliasoft.com/support/rs20025.htm.

Additional Software

Enterprise Database Platforms

32- and 64-bit versions are supported.

Although the enterprise database platform (Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle) could be installed on the same computer where the Synthesis applications reside, most organizations will choose to set up a separate server to host the database. Both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Synthesis-enabled applications will work with either the 32-bit or 64-bit versions of a back-end database/server. The minimum hardware/software requirements for each server hosting the database should be obtained directly from the selected database vendor (i.e., Microsoft or Oracle). In general, ReliaSoft recommends a minimum CPU speed of 2 GHz and 4 GB of RAM.

Tip: If you're considering the option to use the free "Express" edition of Microsoft SQL Server, the document at http://www.reliasoft.com/synthesis/sql_express.htm provides some information that may help you to get started.
