I have a distributed environment wherein I plan to install the PostgreSQL DB as required by the ArcGIS Monitor (2023.3.1) on the Ubuntu Linux machine and the Monitor server application on a different server running Windows. I wanted to know if keeping Monitor server and PostgreSQL on different servers and on different OS has been tried before and if this is a viable idea?

Hey @Praneta_Nadupalli 

As long as there is a PostgreSQL server available that the Monitor application can route to, it can be used as a database for this purpose. I have a Windows setup, where my PostgreSQL server is on a Linux server and my Monitor Server installation is on Windows, I've experienced no issues so far. I'd just be sure that the ports are all opened which you'd need for the connection to go through.
