System Specifications

This page outlines the minimum and recommended hardware specifications required to run our software effectively.

MOTAR is lightweight and highly portable; it can run on hardware ranging from a Raspberry Pi to a full cloud-based cluster. The core system has a minimal footprint, but performance will depend on:

• Number of concurrent users

• Asset storage needs (models, images, audio)

• Bandwidth and RAM availability

Choose the appropriate setup based on your use case:

Portable / Development (Minimum Viable)

Example: Raspberry Pi 5

• CPU: 2.4GHz ARM 64-bit quad-core

• RAM: 8–16GB DDR4

• Storage: 128–250GB SSD (external preferred)

• Network: Gigabit Ethernet or strong WiFi

✅ Good for: portable, single-user instances.

---

Desktop / Local Server (Recommended)

Suitable for small teams or internal use

• CPU: AMD/Intel 64-bit, 4–8 cores

• RAM: 16–32GB

• Storage: 250GB+ SSD

• Network: Wired Ethernet or reliable WiFi

✅ Balanced setup for moderate asset use and 1–10 concurrent users.

---

Cloud / Production (Scalable Infrastructure)

For high concurrency and asset-heavy environments

• CPU: 16+ core AMD/Intel/ARM (x86_64)

• RAM: 64GB+ (scale based on users)

• Storage: 1TB+ SSD or expandable volume

• Network: High-throughput, low-latency

✅ Supports Kubernetes with autoscaling nodes for dynamic performance under load.

💡 Tip: While MOTAR itself is lightweight, your assets and users will dictate the scale. Plan ahead for growth in RAM, storage, and bandwidth.
