best practices

Question

I have a few questions as we prepare to deploy Portal when 10.2 comes out.

[INDENT]* What is the best practice for deployment, in regards to server resources?  Would it be better to deploy Portal on a separate server from ArcGIS for Server?
* If it should be deployed on a separate server, what are the recommended hardware requirements, are they the same as ArcGIS for Server?
* Is there any documentation available online to help with deployment?

Hi Jacob, Would it be better to deploy Portal on a separate server from ArcGIS for Server?

I think it depends on the load and capacity that your Server and Portal sites will be supporting. If it should be deployed on a separate server, what are the recommended hardware requirements, are they the same as ArcGIS for Server?

As Tatiana referenced in her post, the Portal system requirements are in the help documentation.
The ArcGIS Server system requirements can be found here.Is there any documentation available online to help with deployment?

Hope this helps,
