The purpose of this document is to provide recommended architecture configurations for Charter, for
Atoll 64-bit.
2. General Architecture Recommendations
Atoll is installed on one or several servers (physical or virtual). Calculation tasks are performed on the server(s)
while display and user interactions happen on the client side, using either Remote Desktop or a Citrix client.
In this configuration, all resources are mutualized: common data is shared on a file server and a database is used
to store network data. Thin-client requires that the user is connected to the network to work with Atoll.
The general dimensioning recommendations for a multi-user thin-client configuration are described
below:
• Thin-client Application server configuration
o Remote Access: Microsoft Remote Desktop or Citrix XenApp 7.5 to 7.15 LTSR
o RDBMS:
▪ Oracle 11g (11.2.0.4 or later), 12c (all versions), 18c (all versions)
▪ 4 cores or vCPUs
o RAM: 16+ GB
o RAM: 2+ GB
o Storage: 46 GB (System)
o OS: Windows 8/8.1 Pro 64-bit, Windows 10 64-bit, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, Windows
Server 2019
o Storage:
2.3.1 Hyperthreading
Atoll is a multi-threaded calculation engine which can benefit from increased resources from
hyperthreading, by creating a calculation thread for each logical core on a server. The combined
processing power of a physical core + its HT core is estimated to be up to 125% compared with the
physical core only.
Below is an example of hardware platform for Charter for the thin-client deployment for 12 concurrent
users, composed of an all-in-one server hosting the Atoll application, the file server, the license server
and the database server.

server and one for the database server.
