Applies to: SharePoint Foundation 2013 | SharePoint Server 2013
Overview
SharePoint 2013 provides for several installation scenarios. Currently, these installations include single server with built-in database installations, single-server farm installations, and multiple-server farm installations. This article describes the hardware and software requirements for SharePoint 2013 in each of these scenarios.
Hardware and software requirements for other SharePoint 2013 capabilities
If you plan to use capabilities that are offered through SharePoint 2013 or through other integration channels, such as SQL Server or Exchange Server, you also need to meet the hardware and software requirements that are specific to that capability.
Hardware requirements—location of physical servers
All servers that belong to a server farm, including database servers, must physically reside in the same datacenter. Redundancy and failover between closely located data centers that are configured as a single farm ("stretched farm”) is not supported in SharePoint 2013.
Hardware requirements—web servers, application servers, and single server installations
The values in the following table are minimum values for installations on a single server with a built-in database and for web and application servers that are running SharePoint 2013 in a multiple server farm installation.
For all installation scenarios, you must have sufficient hard disk space for the base installation and sufficient space for diagnostics such as logging, debugging, creating memory dumps, and so on. For production use, you must also have additional free disk space for day-to-day operations. In addition, maintain two times as much free space as you have RAM for production environments.
Installation Scenario

Deployment type and scale

RAM

Processor
| Hard disk space |
| Single server with a built-in database or single server that uses SQL Server | Development or evaluation installation of SharePoint Foundation 2013 | 8 GB | 64-bit, 4 cores | 80 GB for system drive |
Single server with a built-in database or single server that uses SQL Server | Development or evaluation installation of SharePoint Server 2013 | 24 GB | 64-bit, 4 cores | 80 GB for system drive |
Web server or application server in a three-tier farm | Pilot, user acceptance test, or production deployment of SharePoint Server 2013 | 12 GB | 64-bit, 4 cores | 80 GB for system drive |
Hardware requirements—database servers
The requirements in the following table apply to database servers in environments that have multiple servers in the farm.
Component
|
Minimum requirement
|
Processor |
· 64-bit, 4 cores for small deployments
· 64-bit, 8 cores for medium deployments
|
RAM |
· 8 GB for small deployments
· 16 GB for medium deployments
For large deployments, see the "Estimate memory requirements" section in Storage and SQL Server capacity planning and configuration (SharePoint Server 2010).These values are larger than those recommended as the minimum values for SQL Server because of the distribution of data that is required for a SharePoint 2013 environment. For more information about SQL Server system requirements, see Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2008 R2. |
| Hard disk | 80 GB for system drive Hard disk space depends on how much content that you have in your deployment. For information about how to estimate the amount of content and other databases for your deployment, see Storage and SQL Server capacity planning and configuration (SharePoint Server 2010). |
Software requirements
The requirements in the following section apply to the following installations:
· Single server with built-in database
· Server farm with a single server in the farm
· Server farm with multiple servers in the farm
The Microsoft SharePoint Products Preparation Tool can assist you in the installation of the software prerequisites for SharePoint 2013. Ensure that you have an Internet connection, because some prerequisites are installed from the Internet.
