# System Specifications

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
* **Additional:** Virtualization must be enabled on the system

✅ 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.
