System Requirements

Minimum OS and Hardware Requirements for Devin App and Devin Server

Devin App

Operating System: macOS 13 (Ventura)

Claris FileMaker: FileMaker Pro 2024 (21) or higher

Devin Server

If you want Devin on a server from a cloud provider where you do not have root access, see Devin through a Hosting Provider.

Development

Operating System Linux (v1.1) macOS (v1.1) Windows Server (v1.2)

Claris FileMaker FileMaker Server 19.6 or higher (v1.1) FileMaker Server 2023 (20) or higher (v1.2)

Hardware CPU cores: 2 CPU architectures: x64 or arm64 Memory: 8GB

Networking Continuous internet connectivity

Staging/Production

Operating System Linux (v1.1) macOS (v1.1) Windows Server (v1.2)

Claris FileMaker FileMaker Server 18 or higher (v1.1) FileMaker Server 2023 (20) or higher (v1.2)

Hardware CPU cores: 4 CPU architectures: x64 or arm64 Memory: 8GB

Networking Internet connection during Devin Server updates only: when a Devin Server update is manually triggered from the App's Server Settings window. If you require a non-internet connected version, please upvote the feature request here.

FileMaker Server

Development servers running Devin Server 1.1 require FileMaker Server 19.6 (v1.1) or higher, and Devin Server 1.2 require FileMaker Server 2023 (v1.2) or higher. Production servers running Devin Server 1.1 supports versions as far back as 19.6 on Ubuntu Linux, and FileMaker Server 18 on macOS, as long as advanced deployment features are not required. Production Servers running Devin Server 1.2 are testet on FileMaker Server 2023 and newer, but might also support older versions.

Hardware and Concurrency

Development servers typically have lower hardware requirements compared to staging or production servers. The hardware capacity of a non-development server determines its level of concurrency, influencing the number of Devin deployments and data migration tasks that can run simultaneously. It's recommended to allocate at least 4GB of RAM per concurrent operation. These settings are configurable under App -> Settings -> Servers.

Configuring a server for more concurrency than its hardware can handle can lead to server and FileMaker Server crashes. Therefore, it's important to carefully consider the hardware capacity and configure concurrency accordingly to avoid system instability and potential downtime.
