== Render == Things available to Render on the Toolserver which are needed for a transition to WikiLabs/ToolLabs * Database access like currently on the Toolserver * Possibility to build and run C and C++ apps * Possibility to build external C and C++ libraries (app dependencies) from source and install in user directory, without packaging * 64-Bit OS for sufficient address space * ~28GB ''physical'' RAM (comparable to ortelius) * CPU with at least 4 cores with at least 3 GHz, which can actually be used in parallel (comparable to ortelius) * We need to keep large amounts of data available in RAM. Regenerating it is expensive so we need a server with good uptimes. A VM or server which reboots or needs to be re-setup every month or so is not acceptable. * Ideally, we need to use a physical machine like we currently can. It is not yet clear whether a VM will do. "Render is a special case that will need direct attention -- Silke will coordinate the necessary information exchange." - Marc Pelletier, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
The RENDER tools have migrated to Labs last summer, they're up and running. Closing this bug.
