Small

• Network: minimum 1Gb/s

• Number of sites: 1

• Number of vProtect installations: 1 server along with node

• vProtect min. 4 vCPU and 6 GB RAM

• Number of backup threads: 3-4 (default)

• Backup window: 8 hours

• Data to backup: up to 2.5 TB

• staging space: your_largest_VM * backup threads

As mentioned above, network speed is a very important factor. If you have a 1Gb/s connection between the server, node and backup clients, then during the 8 hours of the backup window we can assume that if we load the network at 70% of its capacity, we should transfer 2.5TB of data

In this scenario, vProtect (server and node) can, for example, be deployed as a VM using any of the installation methods.
