Blue Technical Requirements

Blue Users - Administrators, Creators and Respondents

Blue is a 100% web based application and the only requirement is that users have access to the internet or intranet with a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0+ and Mozilla Firefox 1.5+.

Blue Server Requirements - Deployment

Blue leverages Microsoft .Net technologies and uses XML and other services to provide unmatched scalability, performance and functionality. All Blue server components may co-exist on a single server. However, we recommend that Blue be distributed across two servers at a minimum: an Application web server and a Database server (Microsoft SQL Server).

Application Web Server requirements

Suggested software configuration: Windows 2000 Server or later; .Net framework; Microsoft IIS 5.0 or later

Suggested hardware configuration: Pentium IV or compatible 2.5-Ghz+ processor; 1GB memory or better; 40GB free disk space

Blue is the only application that connects directly to an enterprise’s data and authentication sources (RDBMS, LDAP, HRIS, ERP and CRM Systems), enabling the selection of respondents or authorized users live from the data source.

Access to Blue is controlled by your organization's authentication source and uses the same credentials needed to access a user’s email or network accounts.
