l The Connect Workflow module requires less RAM but fast hard drive access. It also
benefits from fast multi-core CPUs, in order to run processes in parallel.

Disk access speed is less of a concern.
l The Connect Designer module requires more RAM and fast disk access to provide a
responsive user-experience.

Environment considerations
This page provides technical information about the environment in which PlanetPress
Workflow is intended to run.
Terminal Services
PlanetPress Workflow does not support Terminal Services environment as possible under
Windows 2000, 2003 and 2008. This is to say, if Terminal Services is installed on the server
where PlanetPress Workflow is located, unexpected behaviors may occur and will not be
supported by our company. Furthermore, using PlanetPress Workflow in a Terminal Service
environment is probably an infringement of our End-User License Agreement.
Terminal Services may also be referred to as Terminal Server or Remote Administration Mode
(Windows Server 2003 and 2008).
Single-User Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) (where only one person can use RDP at a time)
is supported for PlanetPress Workflow version 6.2 and higher, however it is only supported in
Windows XP or Windows 2003. While later versions of Windows may not cause issues when
accessing PlanetPress Workflow through RDP, these combinations are no longer tested and
may not be functional.
Virtual environments
PlanetPress Workflow supports the following virtual environments:
l VMWare Environments. This includes VMWare Player, VMWare Workstation as well as
VMWare ESX Server.
