Best Practices - Alteryx System Settings on a Single Node Installation

timewaste

Hello Peers,

Can anyone point me to a document/post on Best Practices for Alteryx System Settings after a fresh single node installation? We are kind of playing around at this point but would like to properly implement the server side of things.

Thanks in advance!

I assume you're referring to the Engine settings regarding memory usage and processing cores. The general recommendation for those settings is half of the available machine resources. Remember that these are default settings and the engine will vary it's resource utilization as necessary. 

Here's some documentation on Memory usage:

When the machine is configured as a Server worker, consider lowering the default settings to ensure multiple jobs are handled as efficiently as possible.
