Minimum requirements and components

SS&C | Blue Prism® Decipher IDP is a production ready IDP solution, closely integrated with SS&C | Blue Prism® Enterprise. We recommend that you deploy Decipher IDP on dedicated hardware to better support scalability as your use of Decipher IDP increases. We also recommend installing and testing Decipher IDP in a non-production environment prior to using it in a live environment.

Decipher IDP is designed to provide an on-premise solution and is not supported in SS&C | Blue Prism Cloud at this time.

  • RAM: 6 GB (1 GB for the application server at a load of 10,000 pages per day, plus 3 GB for SQL Server, plus 2 GB for Windows).
  • Hard drive space for image storage. The average file size is 1 MB per page and 1 TB per 1 million pages.

Supported browsers

Decipher IDP requires Google Chrome to be set as the default browser. Decipher IDP does not currently support any other browsers.
