Client-Server Database Manager
The MemSys® client-server upgrade is required for all new installations if the shared database is to be located on a server accessed via a local area network. Client-server technology eliminates workstation file handling and reindexing. Because only the file server is allowed to open and update the databases, this technology eliminates the chance that a workstation malfunction could cause harm to any of the shared databases. The client-server upgrade uses Actian Zen / Pervasive SQL (Version 10 or higher) running on the file server and workstations. If MemSys tables will be accessed across a wide area network, we recommend adding the GoGlobal Thin Client module.
Note: MemSys® and PervasiveSQL® can be installed on more workstations than the license calls for, but only the licensed number of users may run MemSys® at the same time.

- Processor – Class i5 or i7 at 2.5GHz (or equivalent)
