Tech Specs

Below are the technical requirements necessary to support IPDAS in your organization.

Supported Server Operating Systems

  • Windows 2019

  • Windows 2016

​

The IPDAS database will typically occupy 1-5 GB of disk space (excluding back-ups) for a large firm.

Note: MS Word 365 will be supported while its current Semi-Annual version is supported. As of February 2021, that version is 2008. We plan to support future Semi-Annual versions of Office shortly after their release, but not necessarily on the same schedule that Office 365 offers them.
