For best performance, we recommend that your environment meets or exceeds
the hardware requirements in :ref:`figure-hwreqs`. However, OpenStack does
not require a significant amount of resources and the following minimum
requirements should support a proof-of-concept environment with core services
and several :term:`CirrOS` instances:
the hardware requirements in :ref:`figure-hwreqs`.
* Controller Node: 1 processor, 2 GB memory, and 5 GB storage
The following minimum requirements should support a proof-of-concept
environment with core services and several :term:`CirrOS` instances:
* Controller Node: 1 processor, 4 GB memory, and 5 GB storage
* Compute Node: 1 processor, 2 GB memory, and 10 GB storage
As the number of OpenStack services and virtual machines increases, so do the
hardware requirements for best performance. If performance degrades after
enabling additional services or virtual machines, consider adding hardware
resources to your environment.
To minimize clutter and provide more resources for OpenStack, we recommend
a minimal installation of your Linux distribution. Also, you must install a
64-bit version of your distribution on each node.
