Hardware configuration when EMS and SQL Server run on different machines with no FortiGate connected

The following table shows the configurations when EMS and SQL Server are running on different Windows Server machines with no FortiGate connected. For deployments of more than 40000 endpoints, using high speeds is recommended to ensure performance.

Number of managed endpoints	EMS server machine		SQL server machine		Suggested keep alive interval
	Number of virtual CPUs	Memory (RAM) (in GB)	Number of virtual CPUs	Memory (RAM) (in GB)
10000 to 20000	6	4	6	12	120 seconds
20000 to 30000	8	6	8	16	120 seconds
30000 to 40000	10	8	10	20	120 seconds
40000 to 50000	12	10	10	24	120 seconds
50000 to 75000	16	12	14	28	120 seconds
75000 to 150000	20	14	20	36	180 seconds
