System Requirements

Tripwire Log Center system requirements and supported platforms for next generation SIEM

The system requirements for Tripwire Log Center vary based on the number of devices sending log data, the volume of log data being processed, and the number of concurrent tasks being performed (e.g. alerting, searching, reporting, etc.). If you have higher volume installations, take advantage of the fact that we're software, not an appliance—data collection, log management and data base servers can execute on separate systems.


Recommended requirements for a mid-size installation are as follows:
