    Hello,

    why it is not possible to put the Information about the physical server requirements on this page? Here are thousands of Links about everything and its from time to time really horrible to find some Info because everything is linked with thousands of Links...I'm sure it can be made better..

      Thanks for sharing this feedback, Daniel. We try to have all the information related to software compatibility added to the SPAC tool, which applies to all on-premise releases. We will check how we can optimize this for future on-premise releases.
