1. Calculation of partition capacity for intercepted data and indexes

When using MS SQL Server as a DBMS for storing intercepted data, the amount of RAM must be increased by an amount equal to the amount of RAM allocated for the needs of this DBMS, but not less than 8 GB (it is necessary to set a limit on the use of RAM in the DBMS settings).

Store = Ratio × Users × Month

Store — capacity in gigabytes (GB) necessary for storing intercepted data.

Ratio — a coefficient that determines the monthly amount of data in GB collected from one controlled user. By default, it is equal to 1.5. If only Network traffic interception server is used, the coefficient is 0.15. If only Mail processing server is used, the coefficient is 0.35. If all interception servers are used, the total coefficient is 2.0 (1.5 + 0.15 + 0.35).

Users — number of controlled users.

Month — the period when data is on demand, in months.

Index = Store × 0.2

Index — the size of the search index, which is about 20% of the intercepted data size.

2. DBMS

It's important to keep in mind that the calculation formula below is based on statistical averages and provides an approximate result.

It is important to note that when storing and processing the planned volumes of data the recommended DBMS is PostgreSQL (it is completely free and there is no need to increase the amount of RAM when using this DBMS). It is forbidden to host databases used by other software on the Anexet database server. When controlling 500 users or more, a required condition is the use of rotation by database size (not more than 2 TB) or by data storage period (not more than 1 month).
