Hardware and software requirements
This article describes hardware requirements of single node deployment scheme and distributed deployment scheme, software requirements of Open Single Management Platform, hardware and software requirements of Kaspersky Deployment Toolkit and OSMP components.
Single node deployment: hardware requirements
Single node scheme only supports up to 10,000 devices in the network.
Additional nodes are required for KATA/KEDR.
In case of single node deployment, it is strongly recommended that you first install the DBMS manually on the host that will act as a primary node. After that, you can deploy Kaspersky Next XDR Expert on the same host.

Requirements for hosts with KUMA services
The KUMA services (collectors, correlators, and storages) are installed on the hosts that are outside of the Kubernetes cluster. Hardware and software requirements for these hosts are described in this article.
Recommended hardware and software requirements
This section lists the hardware and software requirements for processing a data stream of up to 40,000 events per second (EPS). The KUMA load value depends on the type of events being parsed and the efficiency of the normalizer.
For event processing efficiency, the CPU core count is more important than the clock rate. For example, 8 CPU cores with a medium clock rate can process events more efficiently than 4 CPU cores with a high clock rate. The table below lists the hardware and software requirements of KUMA components.
The amount of RAM utilized by the collector depends on configured enrichment methods (DNS, accounts, assets, enrichment with data from Kaspersky CyberTrace) and whether aggregation is used. RAM consumption is influenced by the data aggregation window setting, the number of fields used for aggregation of data, volume of data in fields being aggregated.
For example, with an event stream of 1000 EPS and event enrichment disabled (event enrichment is disabled, event aggregation is disabled, 5000 accounts, 5000 assets per tenant), one collector requires the following resources:
- 1 CPU core or 1 virtual CPU
- 512 MB of RAM
- 1 GB of disk space (not counting event cache)
For example, to support 5 collectors that do not perform event enrichment, you must allocate the following resources: 5 CPU cores, 2.5 GB of RAM, and 5 GB of free disk space.

The transfer rate between ClickHouse nodes must be at least 10 Gbps if the data stream exceeds 20,000 EPS. |
Installation of KUMA is supported in the following virtual environments:
- VMware 6.5 or later
- Hyper-V for Windows Server 2012 R2 or later
- QEMU-KVM 4.2 or later
- Software package of virtualization tools "Brest" RDTSP.10001-02
Kaspersky recommendations for storage servers
For storage servers Kaspersky specialists recommend the following:
- Put ClickHouse on solid state drives (SSD). SSDs help improve data access speed. Hard drives can be used to store data using the HDFS technology.
- To connect a data storage system to storage servers, use high-speed protocols, such as Fibre Channel or iSCSI 10G. We do not recommend using application-level protocols such as NFS and SMB to connect data storage systems.
- Use the ext4 file system on ClickHouse cluster servers.
- If you are using RAID arrays, use RAID 0 for high performance, or RAID 10 for high performance and fault tolerance.
- To ensure fault tolerance and performance of the data storage subsystem, make sure that ClickHouse nodes are deployed strictly on different disk arrays.
- If you are using a virtualized infrastructure to host system components, deploy ClickHouse cluster nodes on different hypervisors. In this case, it is necessary to prevent two virtual machines with ClickHouse from working on the same hypervisor.
- For high-load KUMA installations, install ClickHouse on physical servers.
Requirements for devices for installing agents
To have data sent to the KUMA collector, you must install agents on the network infrastructure devices. Hardware and software requirements are listed in the table below.

On the devices running Windows 10 version RS4 or RS5, Kaspersky Security Center might be unable to detect some vulnerabilities in folders where case sensitivity is enabled.
Before installing Network Agent on the devices running Windows 7, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows MultiPoint Server 2011, make sure that you have installed the security update KB3063858 for OS Windows (Security Update for Windows 7 (KB3063858), Security Update for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB3063858), Security Update for Windows Server 2008 (KB3063858), Security Update for Windows Server 2008 x64 Edition (KB3063858), Security Update for Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB3063858).
In Microsoft Windows XP, Network Agent might not perform some operations correctly.
You can install or update Network Agent for Windows XP in Microsoft Windows XP only. The supported editions of Microsoft Windows XP and their corresponding versions of the Network Agent are listed in the list of supported operating systems. You can download the required version of the Network Agent for Microsoft Windows XP from this page.
We recommend that you install the same version of the Network Agent for Linux as Open Single Management Platform.
Open Single Management Platform fully supports Network Agent of the same or newer versions.
Network Agent for macOS is provided together with Kaspersky security application for this operating system.
