*** JIRA and VisualSVN HELP ***

[D Media]

I want to install JIRA and VisualSVN on the same Windows server.

What are the advantages and disadvantages doing this?

Advantages: you only have to provide one server

Disadvantages:  you need to make sure the server is powerful enough to handle both, and if one of them goes horribly wrong, it may affect the other (e.g. if Jira chews up all your CPU, VisualSVN will suffer)

Hi Nic,

Is it harder to maintain both IIS for Jira and Apache for VisualSVN on the same Windows server?  Maybe there are potential issues with having 2 web servers on the same Windows server?

What is the minimum CPU and RAM to run both Jira and VisualSVN on the same Windows server?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No harder than it would be to maintain it on two separate servers.

I don't know VisualSVN well enough to talk about its performance, but see this for Jira: https://confluence.atlassian.com/enterprise/jira-sizing-guide-461504623.html

Would there be more potential issues if IIS and Apache are on the same server?
