Before you start

Autonomous Identity server software requires the following hardware, storage, and operating system requirements to run in your production environment. Autonomous Identity’s flexible architecture runs in a variety of network environments: on-prem, cloud, multi-cloud, and hybrid.

All production systems differ in many ways. Please discuss with your ForgeRock Professional Services, installers, or partner representatives about your environment specifics.

ForgeRock Google Cloud registry key

You deploy Autonomous Identity using a Docker image that pulls other dependent images from the ForgeRock Google Cloud Registry repository and installs the components on a target node.

For specific instructions on obtaining the registry key, see How To Configure Service Credentials (Push Auth, Docker) in Backstage.

Hardware and memory requirements

Autonomous Identity has a number of components that include application, data, and analytics servers, which are all included in the Docker images. The minimum hardware and memory requirements for a single-node target and a separate deployer machine are as follows:
