Adept Web Server Requirements
Hardware | |
Processor | Minimum: 2.5+ GHz processor with 4 or more cores |
Memory | 32 GB High Utilization System: 48 GB 1️⃣ |
Disk Space | 13 GB for Web Server installation. |
GPU Recommendation 2️⃣ | NVIDIA Tesla T4 with certified enterprise drivers Refer to Appendix 1 - GPU Recommendations for Adept Viewer for further recommendations. |
Notes: More than 50 concurrent users, multiple remote sites, or heavy use of Adept Viewer are considerations for high utilization. Customers are strongly encouraged to configure a GPU for the Adept Web Server. Doing so offloads rendering operations from the CPU. This significantly reduces CPU load for Reviewer and Explorer users in Adept Viewer. | |

Notes: Viewing for Word and Excel is validated using mainstream Office desktop editions of Word and Excel; Office LTSC is not actively tested. Because LTSC provides the same core Office applications, it is expected to work for standard document conversion and viewing scenarios. NEW REQUIREMENT - Beginning with the 2026 release, Inventor Apprentice Server 2026 must be installed separately from Inventor 2026. Both are required to view IDW documents. | ||
