Technical aspects

• Sage operates in a purely client / server architecture (no network share) on Windows. Users of other systems can use Parallels Desktop (Mac only) or VirtualBox.
• It uses the PostgreSQL database engine.
• PostgreSQL can be installed:
  • on a server (Windows, Linux, MacOS, BSD, AIX, HP / UX, IRIS, Solaris). An automatic installer for Windows is provided.
  • or on a local station (which must be turned on for users to access).
  • either at a distance (« Cloud » mode). We propose a database hosting service on powerful servers (XEON 4 cores, 16GB RAM), accessible by certificates (client and server). The databases are backed up daily with a retention period of 15 days. Just allow outgoing connections for client computers via the 5432 / TCP port to a specific address.
