<p>The Rhapsody organizationprovides a set of basic hardware specifications in order to give customers a general idea of the hardware requirements for deploying Rhapsody at their site. These specifications are not intended to replace formal, customized hardware recommendations created by Rhapsody's Professional Services Group (PSG) consultants.</p>
<p>Rhapsody's hardware specifications are categorized according to site size and provide general recommendations based the estimated message load, the average size of the messages, a simple set of processing requirements and the number of days the messages need to be archived.</p>
<p>The following table defines site size based on an average message size of 10kB and average message retention duration of 28 days:</p>
