System Requirements

This page outlines the hardware, software, operating system, network, and browser requirements for deploying and running ZigiOps across all supported environments: Windows, Linux, and ZigiWave-hosted

What Hardware Do I Need to Run ZigiOps?

ZigiOps is lightweight and designed to operate efficiently in enterprise, hybrid cloud, and on-premise environments. Hardware requirements depend on deployment size, expected workload, and the number of workflows and integrated systems.

Hardware Sizing Tiers

Deployment Size	CPU	RAM	Disk
Small	Dual-Core Processor (2.8 GHz or more)	4 GB or more	20 GB or more
Enterprise	Quad-Core Processor (2.8 GHz or more)	8 GB or more	20 GB or more

For high-throughput or large-scale environments, refer to the Scaling and Sizing documentation.

Which Operating Systems Are Supported?

ZigiOps can run on Windows and Linux server environments. Operating systems listed below are supported when used. Any OS not listed may work but has not been officially tested or certified.

Supported Windows Versions

• Windows Server 2008 R2

• Windows Server 2012 / 2012 R2

• Windows Server 2016

• Windows Server 2019

• Windows Server 2022

• Windows Server 2025

Supported Linux Distributions

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

• CentOS

• Ubuntu Server

• Rocky Linux

• AlmaLinux

Both older and newer versions are supported when used. End-of-life distributions may continue to work but are not recommended for new deployments.

What Software and Java Versions Are Required?

ZigiOps requires a supported Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to be installed by the customer.

Current ZigiOps Versions

• Java 17 is required

• The Java runtime is not bundled with ZigiOps

• Customers must install a supported Java 17 distribution separately

Older ZigiOps Versions

Older releases (prior to version 2023.08.2.18) may require Java 8 or Java 17, depending on the specific build. If you are upgrading from an older version, refer to the compatibility table below.

Requirement	Details
Operating System	Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012, 2012 R2, 2016, 2019, 2022, 2025; Ubuntu 14.04 or newer; CentOS 7 or newer; RHEL 7 or newer
Install Privileges	Administrator account (Windows); Super User account (Linux)
Runtime Privileges - Windows	Run as a Service (admin account); Run as a Process is not supported
Runtime Privileges - Linux	Run as a Process (non-root account); Run as a Service (root account)
Java for ZigiOps 2023.08.1.598 or older	Oracle Java 8, Update 211+ (64-bit); Open Java 8, Update 211+ (64-bit)
Java for ZigiOps 2023.08.2.18 or newer	Oracle Java 17 (64-bit); Open Java 17 (64-bit); Azul Java 17 (64-bit)
Web Browser	Google Chrome; Microsoft Edge (Chromium)
Screen Resolution	1280 x 720 or higher

What Are the Requirements for ZigiOps Cloud Deployment?

ZigiOps Cloud has no system requirements on the customer side.

ZigiWave manages:

• Installation

• Hosting

• Updates

• Maintenance

• High availability

Cloud customers simply receive secure access credentials, log in through a supported browser, and start integrating systems immediately.

What Network Prerequisites Should I Prepare?

ZigiOps communicates with integrated systems using secure outbound connections.

Network Requirements

• Outbound access to the APIs or endpoints of integrated systems

• HTTPS access to the ZigiOps UI

• TLS-secured communication

• Proxy support (standard HTTP/HTTPS proxies)

Listener ports are configurable during installation and are not fixed by default.

What User Privileges Are Required to Run ZigiOps?

ZigiOps requires specific privileges during installation and runtime to ensure stability and security.

Installation Privileges

• Administrator or root privileges are required during installation

Runtime Privileges

• Windows: ZigiOps must run as a Windows service

• Linux: ZigiOps can run as a non-root service, but installation requires elevated permissions

No additional privileges are required beyond standard enterprise best practices.

Which Browsers Are Supported for Accessing the ZigiOps UI?

ZigiOps supports modern Chromium-based browsers.

Supported Browsers

• Google Chrome

• Microsoft Edge (Chromium)

Display Requirements

• Minimum resolution: 1280 x 720
