Document & Record Lifecycle Software
The Paperless Office makes use of standard Microsoft technologies already in place in many offices. The following describes in detail what FileHold requires for our two product offerings: FileHold Express and FileHold Enterprise.
FileHold document management software is based on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and can be installed on single or multiple servers depending on the size and scale of the document management application the customer requires. To learn more about the FileHold SOA and the .NET framework services, click here.
The FileHold document management server stores, manages and keeps documents secure. For companies who already use Microsoft Active Directory FileHold offers an optional "synchronization" service so that users have a single log on / authentication that is managed with their Active Directory network.

FileHold Hardware Requirements
The following is the recommended hardware to run FileHold Enterprise or FileHold Express in a production environment. To discuss the optimal performance from your specific hardware configuration contact
|
Minimum
|
|
|
Dedicated Server
|
A dedicated server or virtual machine is required to run FileHold Server.
|
|
Processor
|
A modern Dual Core or better AMD or Intel Processor
|
|
Server Memory
|
To provide basic performance, we recommend 2 GB server memory at minimum. We recommend 4 GB for best performance. If you plan on running the SQL Server application server on the same machine as the FileHold Web Application then 4.0 GB is strongly recommended.
|
|
Hard Disk
|
We recommend a Raid 1 (mirrored) or Raid 5+ Hard drive configuration for
fault tolerance. While the FileHold server installer is only 40 MB
in size, and takes up little space on the web server, you should
have at least double the space of your current document or file
collection. More space may be required depending on the number and
size of documents to be managed by FileHold Document Management
Software.
