PDXpert PLM software system requirements
The PDXpert product
lifecycle management system consists of three major
components:
- one or more clients that execute the application
business rules and provide the user experience;
- a file manager that services requests for database
connection information and file attachments, and
performs product data indexing and maintenance
functions; and
- a SQL database server that manages product
information.
In a single-user
installation, all of these components can be installed on
one computer. Most installations, however, will have one
computer act as database and file management server, and
other computers act as clients. Servers do not have to be
dedicated exclusively to PDXpert PLM software,
although sharing resources with other applications and
functions may affect system performance.
The PDXpert installer automatically detects your Windows 32-bit or 64-bit
operating system and installs the appropriate executable. PDXpert can be run
in a mixed network of 32-/64-bit computers.
