Server Specifications
Introduction
The NetFUNNEL license is determined by the maximum number of concurrent connections—more precisely, the maximum number of concurrent requests, a.k.a. TPS—that the NetFUNNEL server can handle.
Higher license tiers require higher server specifications, and the hardware requirements vary accordingly.
Standard refers to a single-server configuration without high availability (HA) support, while Enterprise refers to a package that supports two or more servers in a high-availability configuration for improved fault tolerance. Enterprise configurations operate in active-active mode, where all servers actively process requests simultaneously.
NetFUNNEL also provides EUM (End-User Monitoring), a feature that collects and processes large-scale data in real time, which demands additional server resources. If EUM is not required, it is strongly recommended to disable the feature in the system administrator console to reduce the required server specifications.
All core counts in the tables refer to vCPUs (logical cores). For example, on an Intel CPU server with 2 physical cores and Hyper-Threading enabled (which doubles the logical cores), the logical core count would be 4 Cores. It is important not to confuse physical cores with logical cores.
How to Read the Tables
The tables below specify the required server specifications based on your license tier (PCCU). To use these tables:
- Find your license tier: Locate the row that matches your PCCU (Peak Concurrent Connected Users) value.
- Check EUM status: Determine whether you need EUM (End-User Monitoring) enabled or not, and select the corresponding table.
- Choose configuration type: Select either Standard (single server) or Enterprise (active-active multi-server) configuration.
- Review specifications: For lower licenses, you can choose between minimum and recommended specs. For higher licenses, only the exact specified specs are supported.
For Lower Licenses (≤ 100,000)
These specifications are recommended for customers where the service can run smoothly even with a lower license. The recommended specs ensure stable operation even if requests come in at the maximum TPS every second.
If cost is a concern, the minimum specs (50% of the recommended spec) can be supplied — but you must inform the customer that this may cause some processing delay.
Operating at minimum spec may result in approximately 30% performance degradation.
Standard Configuration
With EUM Included
| TPS (= PCCU) | Logical Cores (Min) | Logical Cores (Recommended) | Memory | Number of Servers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5,000 | 4 Core | 8 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 10,000 | 8 Core | 16 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 25,000 | 16 Core | 32 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 50,000 | 32 Core | 64 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
Without EUM
| TPS (= PCCU) | Logical Cores (Min) | Logical Cores (Recommended) | Memory | Number of Servers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5,000 | - | 4 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 10,000 | 4 Core | 8 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 25,000 | 8 Core | 16 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
| 50,000 | 16 Core | 32 Core | 16 GB | 1 |
Enterprise Configuration
Enterprise configurations operate in active-active mode, where all servers actively process requests simultaneously for improved performance and fault tolerance.
With EUM Included
| TPS (= PCCU) | Logical Cores (Min) | Logical Cores (Recommended) | Memory | Number of Servers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20,000 | 8 Core | 16 Core | 16 GB | 2 |
| 50,000 | 16 Core | 32 Core | 16 GB | 2 |
| 100,000 | 16 Core | 32 Core | 16 GB | 4 |
Without EUM
| TPS (= PCCU) | Logical Cores (Min) | Logical Cores (Recommended) | Memory | Number of Servers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20,000 | 4 Core | 8 Core | 16 GB | 2 |
| 50,000 | 8 Core | 16 Core | 16 GB | 2 |
| 100,000 | 16 Core | 32 Core | 16 GB | 2 |
For Higher Licenses (≥ 500,000)
These specifications apply to high-license tiers exceeding 500,000, designed to avoid proposing prohibitively high hardware requirements. At this tier, Standard configurations are not available—only Enterprise configurations are supported.
Additionally, there is no minimum or recommended logical core range; the exact required logical core count specified in the table must be met.
While these servers cannot fully process the maximum TPS, they can still stably handle approximately 30–40% of the recommended capacity.
Enterprise Configuration
Enterprise configurations operate in active-active mode, where all servers actively process requests simultaneously for improved performance and fault tolerance.

| TPS (= PCCU) | Logical Cores (Necessarily Needed) | Memory | Number of Servers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 250,000 | 32 Core | 32 GB | 3 |
