Memory
^^^^^^
Memory requirements for running a Nextcloud server are greatly variable,
depending on the numbers of users, apps, files and volume of server activity.
Nextcloud needs a minimum of **128MB** RAM, and we recommend a minimum of **512MB**.
Database requirements for MySQL / MariaDB
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following is currently required if you're running Nextcloud together with a MySQL / MariaDB database:
* InnoDB storage engine (MyISAM is not supported)
* "READ COMMITED" transaction isolation level (See: :ref:`db-transaction-label`)
* Disabled or BINLOG_FORMAT = ROW configured Binary Logging (See: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/binary-log-formats.html)
* For **Emoji (UTF8 4-byte) support** see :doc:`../configuration_database/mysql_4byte_support`
Desktop client
--------------
We strongly recommend using the latest version of your operating system to get the full and most stable experience out
of our clients.
* **Windows** 7+
* **macOS** Lion (10.7)+ (64-bit only)
* **Linux** (CentOS 6.5+, Ubuntu 14.04+, Fedora 21+, openSUSE 13, SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3+, Debian 8 (Jessie)+, Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 7)
Mobile apps
-----------
We strongly recommend using the latest version of your mobile operating system to get the full and most stable experience out
of our mobile apps.
- **iOS** 10.x+
- **Android** 4.x+
.. note:: The separate Nextcloud Talk app requires iOS 10.x+ or Android 5.x+.
Web browser
-----------
For the best experience with the Nextcloud web interface, we recommend that you use the latest and supported version
of a browser from this list, or one based on those:
- Microsoft **Internet Explorer 11** (latest version)
- Microsoft **Edge**
- Mozilla **Firefox**
- Google **Chrome**/Chromium
- Apple **Safari**
.. note:: If you want to use Nextcloud Talk you should use Mozilla **Firefox** 52+ or Google **Chrome**/Chromium 49+ to have
the full experience with video calls and screensharing. Google Chrome/Chromium requires a additional plugin for
screensharing.
