For requirements exceeding 1000 concurrent users, double the configuration of the 200~1000 range. The data disk size in the above configurations can be adjusted according to the actual business data storage requirements.
License and Deployment Key
Before conducting private deployment, you need to apply for a Deployment Key, which is bound to the server's MAC address and needs to be reapplied if the server is replaced. After successful system installation, use the Deployment Key as the password to log in to the Informat Enterprise Background. You can create teams using the License in the enterprise background.
The License limits the team name, number of applications that can be created, number of members, expiration time, and other information.
