InSite Creative Workflow 11.0 supports the following versions of Kodak software:

  • InSite Prepress Portal 11.0
  • Prinergy Workflow system 10.0 or later

  • Matchprint Virtual 11.0

InSite Creative Workflow servers and workstations must meet specific hardware and software requirements.

Qualified servers

InSite Creative Workflow and Distribution can run on the following platforms:

Windows 2019:

  • Dell PowerEdge T330, T340, T350 Performance Plus server

  • Dell PowerEdge T550, R550, T630, R730, T640, R740 High Performance Premium server or Premium server 

  • Kodak Virtual Operating Environment (KVOE)†, running on the following hosts:
    • VMWare ESXi 6.5 or higher
    • Microsoft Hyper-V 2019 or 2022

Windows 2022:

  • Dell PowerEdge T340, T350 Performance Plus server

  • Dell PowerEdge T550, R550, T640, R740 High Performance Premium server or Premium server 

  • Kodak Virtual Operating Environment (KVOE)†, running on the following hosts:
    • VMWare ESXi 6.5 or higher
    • Microsoft Hyper-V 2019 or 2022

Note: A minimum of 16 GB of RAM and 146/160 GB (platform dependent) system disk are highly recommended for Windows 2019. A minimum of 32 GB of RAM and 250 GB system disk are highly recommended for Windows 2022. You may check the total current usage of all the running processes of your system and then add 4 GB on top of it. This total may be the amount of RAM to have to sufficiently run the system. Your configuration and other factors may still affect the overall performance, and the system may require more disk space or RAM.

Note: Intel and AMD CPUs are supported in Kodak Virtual Operating Environment installations (VMWare and Hyper-V).

ImportantFor VOE (Virtual Operating Environment), Kodak does not provide the license for Microsoft operating system. The licenses can be purchased through a Microsoft reseller of your choice.

The KVOE is the VM Host that holds your Kodak Virtual Machines. The individual VMs on that host must comply with the OS requirements of the software.

KVOE virtual appliances (VMware and Hyper-V)n - 2

Number of vCPUs assigned to the VM minus 2 = total number of rendering engines that can be used on the appliance.
For example: If there are 4 vCPUs, you can use 2 rendering engines. 8 vCPUs = 6 rendering engines, etc.
VMWare and Hyper-V license limits are usually the limiting factor. "

Note: Maximum number of rendering engines is defined by the hardware platform and workflow licensing, not by the version of the workflow software. 

Important: These are guidelines only. While they are accurate for most installations, individual workflow and file type variations and/or bandwidth limitations may limit the maximum number of renderers to fewer than the listed maximums.

Qualified DMZ configurations

If a DMZ configuration is required, it must be purchased from Kodak. Other DMZ configurations are not supported.

Qualified client computers
