Supported BlueXP classification instance types
BlueXP classification software must run on a host that meets specific operating system requirements, RAM requirements, software requirements, and so on. When deploying BlueXP classification in the cloud, we recommend that you use a system with the "large" characteristics for full functionality.
You can deploy BlueXP classification on a system with fewer CPUs and less RAM, but there are some limitations when using these less powerful systems. Learn about these limitations.
In the following tables, if the system marked as "default" is not available in the region where you are installing BlueXP classification, the next system in the table will be deployed.
