BellaDati IoT Data Controller is a Java based application with micro-services architecture. It is available as a cloud-based service or can be deployed on your own hardware in your infrastructure.
This page describes the supported platforms and system requirements for version 0.6+.
IOT modules and heapspace Xmx
There four base modules of IoT called : audit, receiver, sender and belladati module; installation comes with default heapspace (Xmx) values for them, particularly there are 256, 1024, 2048 and 512 (in MB) It is strongly recommended to modify the values for specific situation; As en example when Belladati module is expected to utilization, Xmx will be at least 2048MB; more details / description see below.
Server
Hardware
In an on-premise environment, a Controller installation consists of multiple distributed modules. These can run on the same computer or on different machines. For evaluation purposes, it is usually sufficient to run all modules on the same computer, e.g. a developer workstation.
Controller hardware requirements mainly depend on the amount of data being processed and the number of concurrent requests during peak minutes. To ensure optimal performance under any circumstances, we group our hardware requirements in 3 tiers depending on usage characteristics. Please note that even so, these configurations can only be guidelines and actual requirements and performance can heavily depend on your usage pattern.
We would appreciate if you could let us know what hardware configuration works in your environment. Please create a ticket in our support system, describing your hardware configuration as well as the number of sensors and data records in your Controller installation.
Minimal Configuration
This configuration is recommended for data throughput up to 100 requests per second (e.g. 100 sensors where each sensor is sending up to 60 requests every minute). We suggest using this for demo or sandbox purposes. Please verify that target machine meets following minimal configuration, because Controller needs sufficient resources (free RAM, CPU, free disk space) to run correctly.
| Deployment mode | One machine for all modules |
|---|---|
Count of Audit modules | 1 |
Count of Receiver/Sender modules | 1-4 |
Machine
CPU | 1x 2 GHz 32/64-bit Intel Xeon or comparable |
|---|---|
RAM | 2 GB |
Disk | 1 GB |
Network | 3G |
Medium-load Configuration
This configuration is recommended for data throughput up to 1000 requests per second (e.g. 1.000 sensors where each sensor is sending up to 60 requests every minute).
| Deployment mode | One machine for all modules |
|---|---|
Count of Audit modules | 1 |
Count of Receiver/Sender modules | 1-10 |
Machine for Audit, Receivers and Senders (linked and running together)
CPU | 4x 2 GHz 64-bit Intel Xeon or comparable |
|---|---|
RAM | 8 GB |
Disk | 20 GB, 10,000 rpm, IDE / SCSI |
Network | 100 Mbps |
For production environment, we recommend to build an distributed environment.
High-load Configuration
This configuration is recommended for a up to 1.000.000 requests per second (e.g. 1.000.000 sensors where each sensor is sending up to 60 requests every minute). It is necessary to run modules on different machines for this configuration.
| Deployment mode | Distributed |
|---|---|
Count of Audit modules | 1 |
Count of Receiver/Sender modules | count of sensors / 1000 |
Machine for one Audit module

Operating System
Controller can run on any operating system for which a supported Java 8+ is available. Such operating systems include:
- Microsoft Windows Server 2012
- Microsoft Windows 10
- Microsoft Windows 8
- Microsoft Windows 7 (manual installation only)
- Linux distributions (SuSE Linux, RedHat, CentOS, Ubuntu)
- Solaris
