Amazon Web Services (AWS) Solution

The core components for Netwrix Access Analyzer (formerly Enterprise Auditor) are the Access Analyzer Console server, SQL Server, and Access Information Center. See the Requirements topic for the core requirements.

See the Target Amazon Web Service Requirements, Permissions, and Ports topic for target environment requirements.

AWS Solution Requirements on the Access Analyzer Console​

RAM, CPU, and Disk Space

These are dependent upon the size of the target environment:

EnvironmentLargeMedium – Small
Definition> 100 Accounts< 100 Accounts
RAM8+ GB4+ GB
Cores4 CPU2 CPU
Disk Space30 GB30 GB

NOTE: If running Sensitive Data Discovery (SDD) scans, it will be necessary to increase the minimum amount of RAM. Each thread requires a minimum of 2 additional GB of RAM per host. For example, if the job is configured to scan 8 hosts at a time , then an extra 16 GB of RAM are required (8x2=16).

Sensitive Data Discovery Auditing Requirement

NOTE: The appropriate JDK (Java) version for Sensitive Data Discovery is installed on the server. The JDK deployed is prepackaged and does not require any configuration; it has been preconfigured to work with Access Analyzer and should never be customized through Java. It will not conflict with other JDKs or Java Runtimes in the same environment.
