Do I need to buy anything extra to use the Synthesis Platform?<\/span><\/h3>\n

The platform is automatically installed with any Synthesis desktop application. If you have one or more of these applications, there is nothing extra to buy or install.<\/p>\n

\n

Should I choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Synthesis?<\/span><\/h3>\n

All Synthesis desktop applications are available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions with the capability for multi-processor and multi-threading support.<\/p>\n

You can choose which version of Synthesis to install if you have a 64-bit version of Windows and any version of Microsoft Office except Office 2010 (32-bit). The decision should be based on the capabilities of your computer and how you plan to use the software. In general, the 64-bit version may be preferred if you plan to use large BlockSim\/RENO simulations and have a powerful PC with 8+ GB of RAM; but there is no benefit to the 64-bit version if you do not have more than 4 GB of RAM on your PC. [See our 32-bit vs. 64-bit FAQ…]<\/p>\n

\n

Do I have to buy a different version for single-user vs. enterprise deployments?<\/span><\/h3>\n

No. All Synthesis desktop applications weredesigned to be “connection aware” and adapt automatically to single-user, multi-user and enterprise configurations based on what type of repository the application is currently connected to. There’s only one version of each application to buy and install, then you can decide how you want to use it.
\nYou can even enjoy the best of both worlds \u2014 take advantage of the simplicity of a single-user application when you’re working independently on a particular analysis, but share data and analysis results with colleagues when you connect with a multi-user or enterprise repository… all using the same software tool!Learn more…<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Do I need to purchase a database server?<\/span><\/h3>\n

For Synthesis desktop applications, a database server is not required unless you choose to use the platform in an enterprise mode. An enterprise data repository requires implementation of Microsoft SQL Server\u00ae or Oracle\u00ae (and for smaller groups or power users, you can also use the free “Express” editions of those database platforms). A standard repository or Synthesis file requires no special IT infrastructure or support. [Tip: If you’re considering the option to use the free “Express” edition of Microsoft SQL Server, this document provides some information that may help you to get started. http:\/\/www.ReliaSoft.com\/languages\/.<\/p>\n
