System Requirements for Stages 7.5

Client Requirements

Stages is a web application, so a recent web browser is required on the clients.

BrowserSupported Versions
Internet Explorer11*1,2
Google ChromeLatest Version
Microsoft EdgeLatest Version
Mozilla FirefoxLatest Version
Mobile SafariLatest Version

Note: The browser must have cookies and JavaScript enabled.

*1) Due to low rendering speed, Internet Explorer may react slowly when many elements are located on the same hierarchical level. Therefore the number of elements to be displayed is limited when using this browser. The default limit is 200 elements, which can be adjusted via the “list.limit.ie” config property. A progress bar is displayed after one second to raise user awareness. For process usability reasons, we recommend to place elements into folders to avoid this situation from happening and for maximizing process user experience.
*2) Due to poor SVG support, the Zoom and Scroll tool for process visualizations is not supported for IE 11 and older Edge versions (< 79.0).

Server Requirements

Stages is a Java application and is executed on a Tomcat application server. The application server is automatically installed together with Stages.

The application server also acts as a web server. Thus, no additional web server (i.e. Apache or IIS) is required. If you do deploy Stages behind a web server (i.e. Apache or IIS), please ensure that:

Running Stages with a permanent license requires the Stages server machine to have a fixed IP address.

If the Stages user database should be synchronized with a Windows Active Directory Server via LDAP, a read-only user account on the ActiveDirectory server is required.

Stages is approved to run on virtualized environments, if sufficient resource isolation is assured (e.g. that intense CPU usage on another VM cannot degrade the Stages application VM performance).
