Article summary

In most of organizations, BizTalk Groups are setup in at least 3 environments (Production, Staging, QA/Dev).

Considering these environment configurations, we are suggesting BizTalk360 Application Servers hardware requirements with BizTalk360 Gold tier. Having the Gold tier, and not Platinum, means that you will not have the ability to use the BizTalk360 Analytics features, but this will also save you from needing additional resources which are needed with these features. However, with the mentioned hardware requirements, we kept the possibility open to upgrade to Platinum tier, without the need for additional hardware requirements.

As you will see, we have written down the requirements for the BizTalk360 Application servers for BizTalk Server 2013 R2 environments, as well as BizTalk Server 2016 environments. Each of these BizTalk360 Application servers, will be used to operate and monitor 3 different BizTalk environments. The specifications for these servers have also been written with that requirement in mind.

You will also find the requirements for the SQL server, which will host 2 SQL Server instances. Each SQL instance will host a BizTalk360 database, which will connect to either the BizTalk360 application server for monitoring the BizTalk Server 2016 environments, or the one for monitoring the BizTalk Server 2013 R2 environments.
