BusBossTM Software System Requirements

If this system will only be used for BusBoss, you do not need to purchase a “Server” machine for your server. “Servers” typically have RAID array drives with multiple processors, etc… For a “BusBoss Server”, a high-end workstation machine will suffice.

If you intend to use the “BusBoss Server” for other applications, it is recommended you purchase a typical “Server” machine.

BusBoss comes with SQL Express 2005 (free of charge) for storing the data. SQL Express is a desktop version of SQL Server that can be used when there are less than 5 concurrent users. If there are going to be more than 5 concurrent users, we highly recommend purchasing Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or 2005 to store the data.

Orbit Software now has a Real-Time bus tracking solution. If you intend to purchase this system in the future, it is recommended that you purchase a typical “Server” machine. With the Real-Time tracking product, much more disk access is required and therefore a faster hard drive would be recommended.

The SERVER SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for hosting the BusBoss database are as follows:

  • Computer with Windows Operating System (2000/XP/2003/VISTA/2008)
  • Pentium IV Processor 2GHZ or fasterr
  • 17" Color Monitor capable of 800 X 600 screen resolution
  • 100Mbps Network Carde
  • Internet Access
  • 2GB free hard disk space or greater
  • 4GB (2GB Minimum) RAM or greater
  • 32 MB Video card

The RECOMMENDED WORKSTATION SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for BusBoss Client are as follows:

  • Computer with Windows Operating System (32-bit XP or 32/64-bit VISTA)
  • Pentium IV Processor 2GHZ or faster
  • 19" Color Monitor capable of 1024 x 768 screen resolution
  • 100Mbps Network Card
  • Internet Access
  • 1GB free hard disk space or greater
  • 2GB RAM or greater
  • 64 MB Video card

The MINIMUM WORKSTATION SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for BusBoss Client are as follows:

  • Computer with Windows Operating System (32-bit XP or 32/64-bit VISTA)
  • Pentium IV Processor 1.5GHZ or faster
  • 17" Color Monitor capable of 1024 x 768 screen resolution
  • 100Mbps Network Card
  • Internet Access
  • 512MB free hard disk space or greater
  • 1GB RAM or greater
  • 32 MB Video card

The monitors on the workstations should be as large as possible to maximize viewing the map and routes for efficient routing capabilities.

BusBoss is a high-end graphics software application, therefore the better the video card and monitor, and the faster the performance will be. When the map is zoomed further out, there are MANY roads to view, and drawing all the roads will take a considerable amount of time with a poor video card. The monitors on the workstations should be as large as possible to maximize viewing the map and routes for efficient routing capabilities.
