This page details the minimum requirements necessary for installing and using Infisical.
The actual resource requirements will vary in direct proportion to the operations performed by Infisical and the level of utilization by the end users
## **Hardware Requirements**
**Small deployment** suitable for most initial production setups, as well as development and testing scenarios.
**Large deployment** suitable for high-demand production environments, characterized by either a high volume of transactions, large number of secrets, or both.

**Large** suitable for high-demand production environments, characterized by either a high volume of transactions, large number of secrets, or both.
## Hardware Requirements
### Storage
Infisical doesn’t require file storage as all persisted data is saved in the database.
However, its logs and metrics are saved to disk for later viewing. As a result, we recommend provisioning 1-2 GB of storage.
### **CPU**
### CPU
CPU requirements vary heavily on the volume of secret operations (reads and writes) you anticipate.
Processing large volumes of secrets frequently and consistently will require higher CPU.

- **small:** 2-4 core is the **recommended** minimum
- **large:** 4-8 cores are suitable for larger deployments
### **Memory Allocation**
### Memory Allocation
Memory needs depend on expected workload, including factors like user activity, automation level, and the frequency of secret operations.

## **Database**
## Database & caching layer
### Postgres
PostgreSQL is the only database supported by Infisical. Infisical has been extensively tested with Postgres version 16. We recommend using versions 14 and up for optimal compatibility.

## **Redis**
### Redis
Redis is utilized for session management and background tasks in Infisical.
@@ -54,7 +60,7 @@ Redis requirements:
- Redis Cluster mode is currently not supported; use Redis Standalone, with or without High Availability (HA).
- Redis storage needs are minimal: a setup with 1 vCPU, 1 GB RAM, and 1GB SSD will be sufficient for most deployments.
## **Supported Web Browsers**
## Supported Web Browsers
Infisical supports a range of web browsers. However, features such as browser-based CLI login only work on Google Chrome and Firefox at the moment.
