Release 5.5.x Center compatibility

• VMware ESXi 6.x and later.

• Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2016 or later.

• Nutanix AOS 6.10 or later.

Cloud sizing scope

Cyber Vision cloud deployment guidance includes AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Use the sizing values only for the cloud platform that the sizing table names.

For VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, Nutanix AOS, AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud deployments, use the Release 5.5.x installation and compatibility documentation before final sizing.

Center VM sizing

For a non-cloud Center VM, use these Release 5.5.x sizing points:

• Up to 20,000 components and 150 Sensors without Center DPI: 16 cores, 64 GB RAM, and 1 TB NVMe storage with validated or provisioned IOPS.

• Up to 70,000 components, 400 Sensors, and 21 million stored flows, or any Center deployment with Center DPI: resources equivalent to the CV-CNTR-M8, including equivalent CPU resources, 192 GB RAM, and equivalent NVMe disk performance.

Do not use lower or intermediate Center VM sizing points for Release 5.5.x planning.

CVSM VM sizing

A CVSM VM with 8 vCPUs and 16 GB RAM can manage up to 100 enrolled Centers.

VM and cloud design rules

• Use NVMe-class storage for Center VM deployments and high-performance cloud disk tiers for cloud deployments.

• Validate sustained write IOPS and throughput, not only raw capacity.

• Avoid storage oversubscription for larger Centers.

• Treat snapshots, backups, and maintenance windows as possible performance events.
