netTerrain is a modern n-tiered web-based enterprise-grade software for network and data center documentation that can be deployed in a variety of configurations.
The data tier (database server) and the application tier (application server) can be deployed on the same or on separate (physical or virtual) machines. The netTerrain database can run on any operating system and virtual environment that supports SQL Server 2012 / 2014 / 2016 / 2019 and the application server can run on any Windows operating system and virtual environment that supports IIS 8.0 or better and .NET 4.5.
These specifications may not yield a fast-performing system if there is a high volume of activity associated with other applications or database systems running in parallel.
