Users that prefer an on-premise web server can follow the instructions below to install the Scout Web Server locally. On-premise installations of the Scout Web Server store metadata from each license plate read in a local MySQL database. Full images of the plate captures remain in a rolling buffer on the hard drive where the Agent is installed.
Requirements
When sizing a server for the Scout on-premises web server, make sure to select a sufficiently fast hard drive. For web servers supporting up to 200 Agents, a single SSD should be sufficient. For larger installations, the server will likely need multiple hard drives configured as a RAID.
Minimum system requirements:
-
Ubuntu Linux 18.04 64-bit
-
4GB RAM
-
250GB SSD hard drive
-
Dual-core or greater CPU
