*Enterprise Production Deployments vary per use case. For assistance assessing hardware sizing needs, talk to your Alteryx representative. Learn more in this whitepaper and our Configuration Page.
**This table assumes 1 physical core to be equal to 2 logical cores. For more information, please see our licensing definitions page.
Other Requirements
| OS | Microsoft Windows Server 2012 64-bit or later |

Admin access to the host server's operating system or physical access to the server hardware is required to install Server. |
| Local Admin Rights | Local administrator rights are required for the user account that runs the Alteryx Service. |
| Active Directory Read Access |
Read access to Active Directory, if you plan to use Integrated Windows Authentication. Visit the Gallery Authentication help page to learn more about authentication options. |
| FIPS Mode | Disabled |

Ensure the computer can contact the whitelist.alteryx.com web domain used by the Alteryx licensing system. |
| File Share Access |
Read and write permissions to the file share. |
| Predictive Tools Install | Install Predictive Tools to run workflows that use the Predictive Tools on Server. |
| Base Address | The base address is the URL that users use to access the Gallery. The URL defaults to http://localhost/gallery/ which you can use to run the Gallery locally. |
| SMTP Server | SMTP host information is required for Gallery email notifications. Notifications and account validations are managed via email. |
