Announcements for Version 2020.10.0

New containers and changes to system requirements postponed to the 2020.12.0 release

Black Duck had announced previously that there would be two additional containers: BOM Engine and RabbitMQ (now a required container), for the 2020.10.0 release. This requirement has been postponed to the 2020.12.0 release.

For the 2020.12.0 release, the minimum system requirements to run a single instance of all containers will be:

  • 6 CPUs

  • 26 GB RAM for the minimum Redis configuration; 29 GB RAM for an optimal configuration providing higher availability for Redis-driven caching

  • 250 GB of free disk space for the database and other Black Duck containers

  • Commensurate space for database backups

For the 2020.12.0 release, the minimum hardware that is needed to run Black Duck with Black Duck Binary Analysis will be:

  • 7 CPUs

  • 30 GB RAM for the minimum Redis configuration; 33 GB RAM for an optimal configuration providing higher availability for Redis-driven caching

  • 350 GB of free disk space for the database and other Black Duck containers

  • Commensurate space for database backups

Note: An additional CPU, 2 GB RAM, and 100 GB of free disk space will be needed for every additional binaryscanner container.
