The system and hardware requirements that are required to run ArcGIS Data Store are listed below. ArcGIS Data Store is part of ArcGIS for Server; they both support the same operating systems and browsers.
It's recommended that you review the deprecation notice to determine if your hardware and software components are still compatible with version 10.4.1.
Operating system requirements
The following 64-bit operating systems satisfy the minimum operating system requirements. Support is not provided for 32-bit operating systems; the setup will only proceed if the operating system is 64 bit.
Machines with an underscore (_) in their names are not supported. Several widely used Internet host name specifications have designated the underscore character as nonstandard. Although Windows allows you to use the underscore in a machine name, it can still cause problems when you interact with other servers and platforms. For this reason, ArcGIS Data Store will not proceed with installation on servers that have an underscore in the host name.
ArcGIS Data Store is not supported on domain controllers. Installing ArcGIS Data Store on a domain controller may adversely affect functionality.

Disk space requirements
ArcGIS Data Store installation requires a minimum of 709 MB of available disk space on the system drive; however, this space does not take into account the data you will store in the data store.
Firewall settings
ArcGIS Data Store uses specific ports to communicate with your portal and ArcGIS for Server.
- HTTPS port—ArcGIS Data Store is accessed via secured port 2443.
- Database port—The PostgreSQL database clusters created for ArcGIS Data Store listen on port 9876.
Supported web browsers
ArcGIS Data Store Administration Resources requires one of the following web browsers to be installed:
- Google Chrome (version 10 or later)
- Mozilla Firefox (version 10 or later)
- Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 9, 10, or 11)
- Microsoft Edge
Supported virtualization environments
All components of ArcGIS for Server are fully supported on virtual environments as long as they run on supported platforms. When running third-party applications with ArcGIS for Server, such as relational databases, the application must also be supported in a virtual environment. Check the third-party vendor for its virtualization support.
The following virtualization environments are known to perform well with ArcGIS for Server:
- VMware vSphere 5, including 5.0, 5.1, and 5.5
- VMware vSphere 6
- Microsoft Hyper-V
