## Overview
This topic provides the system requirements for the Oracle Enterprise Gateway and specific requirements for other components. For details on Enterprise Gateway components and concepts, see Oracle Enterprise Gateway Architecture.
## Operating System Requirements
This section describes the operating system requirements for the Enterprise Gateway:
Platform | Supported Versions | Hardware Prerequisites
Windows | Windows Server 2003 SP2 Windows Server 2003 R2+ Windows Server 2008 SP1+ Windows XP SP2+ Windows 7 | AMD Opteron, Intel Pentium® at 500 MHz or faster, or Intel EM64T Minimum 500 MB free disk space for installation, 10 GB recommended Minimum 1 GB physical memory, 4 GB recommended
Solaris | Solaris 9 Update 9+ Solaris 10 Update 4+ | Solaris compatible SPARC processor at 440 MHz, or faster Minimum 1000 MB free disk space for installation Minimum 1 GB physical memory, 4 GB recommended
Linux | Oracle Linux 4 (UL7+) Oracle Linux 5 (UL3+) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (UL7+) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (UL3+) SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SP1+) SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (all SP levels) Oracle software may not run on systems that do not meet these requirements (see Important Note below). | AMD Opteron, Intel Pentium® at 500 MHz or faster, or Intel EM64T Minimum 500 MB free disk space for installation, 10 GB recommended Minimum 1 GB physical memory, 4 GB recommended
Important Note When new Linux kernels and distributions are release, Oracle modifies and tests its products for stability and reliability on these platforms. Oracle makes every effort to add support for new kernels and distributions in a timely manner. However, until a kernel or distribution is added to this list, its use with Oracle products is not supported. If you are running any popular Linux distribution with a 2.6 kernel and libc version 6, Oracle endeavors to support you if issues arise.
## Specific Requirements
This section describes requirements for specific components:
Component | Requirement
Policy Studio | Runs on the same platforms as the Enterprise Gateway with the following additional requirements on Linux and Solaris: X-Windows environment GTK+ 2
Service Manager | Supports the following browsers: Internet Explorer 7.x, 8.x Firefox 3.5, 3.6 Safari 4, 5
Real-time Monitoring Console | Requires the Adobe Flash 10.0.x plugin installed in your browser. Supports the same browser versions as Service Manager. Recommended screen resolution is 1024 x 768.
Service Monitor | Server component has the same platform requirements as the Enterprise Gateway. Supports the following databases: MySQL Server 5.1 Microsoft SQL Server 2000, 2005, 2008 Oracle 10.2.0.4+, 11.1.0.7+, 11.2.0.1 IBM DB2 9.1 Client component has same requirements as Real-time Monitoring Console.
Policy Center | Same platform requirements as the Enterprise Gateway, with a recommended free disk space of 50 GB.
## Default Ports
