Depends on a lot of factors,
 
1) What sort of traffic are you expecting?  Is that mainly file attachments or content volume?
2) Also, what sort of attachment traffic are you expecting?  Attachments are stored in the database directly, so you will have to configure MySQL correctly accordingly.
3) Are you planning on using just one XWiki instance, or multiple instances?
 
For instance,
Our test environment is something like the following (bear in mind our production environment is under a lot heavier use, so has more resources thrown at it).
Virtual PC
2GB Ram
30GB HDD
MySQL 4.1
Tomcat 6
Java 6
 
Our production environment is the same software wise, but running on a mid-range Dell server, double the Ram and 200GB hard disk.

Oggetto: Re: [xwiki-users] Hardware Requirements

This comes up often, and it's really a good point in XWiki's favour - it runs on practically anything that will run the needed server components.  I've had xwiki running in a virtual environment happily for months; under 1gb RAM and a sliver of hdd space.  Boils down really, to your database and java container.
 
For barebones though, you can happily run it on, eg, a modern desktop with 2GB Ram and it'll be happy to run like that for a good while.
 
I think though, that there should really be a "minimum specs" page in the admin guide.  I'd happily add this, but it would be unofficial until otherwise tested

Hi everybody,

I'm wondering which hardware requisites has XWiki. Could someone please share its configuration?

Which is the HW configuration of the server used to run the XWiki  on the net?

Thank you very much!
