Hardware and software requirements
Please note the following software and hardware requirements for installing Process Extractor.
Source system drivers
Process Extractor does not support different drivers per installation at the same time.
The driver must be compatible with Java 21.
SAP
SAP Java Connector (SAP JCo, version >= 3.1) must be installed. You can download SAP JCo directly from SAP.
The transport with the RFC must be imported into the SAP system from which the data is extracted. See the chapter SAP function modules.
JDBC
The driver of the database to be connected must be installed. See the chapter Configure the connection to a JDBC database.
Memory
When using the default settings, we recommend providing at least 9 GB of free memory on the computer where Process Extractor is installed. If you are using a VM, this memory should be reserved exclusively for that machine.
Disk space
The required disk memory depends on the settings of Process Extractor. For example, it depends on how large the block size is, and on the performance of the upload over the Internet to the ARIS Process Mining server, since the files are temporarily written to disk before upload. We recommend 5-10 GB of free disk space.
Network
Process Extractor requires a fast network connection between the connected source system and the internet.
Process Extractor must be able to connect to the source system and ARIS Process Mining server.
