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** ## Summary of ZigiOps System Requirements | Area | Requirement | | ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Supported OS** | Windows, Linux, Cloud | | **Java Version** | Java 17 (current); Java 8 or 17 (older versions) | | **Java Runtime** | Must be installed separately | | **Hardware** | Small: Dual-Core, 4 GB RAM, 20 GB disk; Enterprise: Quad-Core, 8 GB RAM, 20 GB disk | | **Cloud Deployment** | No customer-side infrastructure required | | **Supported Browsers** | Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge (Chromium) | | **Network** | Outbound-focused, TLS-secured, proxy-compatible | --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
