Compatibility
Imagicle Attendant Console is a client/server application.
On the server side, the component responsible for the CTI dialogue with the PBX and the dialogue with other components (directories, presence, queuing system) is called Blue's CTI Server. The Imagicle Attendant Console client component must be installed on each computer.
Automatic server configuration provisioning, user mobility via profile portability and automatic update. The TAPI driver needs to be installed only on the server.
Imagicle Attendant Console support Lync 2010/2013 and Skype for Business, additional license are not required to control the operator's telephone, to monitor the colleague status (BLF) and rich presence.
Furthermore, Queue Manager Enterprise and Auto-Attendant Module are Skype for Business Trusted UCMA Application with native integration with MS S4B Front End Server without the need of media gateway.
If the computer on which Imagicle Attendant Console is installed should crash for any reason, calls can be managed directly from the IP telephone, without missing a call, thereby guaranteeing a robust architecture. With a second server, continuous operation of Imagicle Attendant Console can be guaranteed.
If the first server, CTI Server or Queue Manager Enterprise on the primary server are not available, the client automatically connects to the secondary one, so the Imagicle Attendant Console can always be used, avoiding annoying lost services for customers.

Virtualization requirements
Our applications are ready to run on any virtualization environment as VMware, Microsoft, etc.
If you install Imagicle applications on a Virtual Machine, you must allocate the amount of RAM, CPU power and disk space stated in the server table. The virtual hardware resources must be reserved, that is, they must not be shared with other virtual machines. No limit must be set for CPU utilization.
Data storage requirements
The suite installation includes Microsoft® SQL Server® 2017 Express Edition, offering top security, improved performance and 10 GB database. The update of existing installations, automatically upgrades to the latest version, in a transparent operation for the system administrator.
The applications store configuration and data in the SQL 2017 Express Edition, with the following storage considerations:
Call Analytics – requires 700 MB per million calls to keep online for reporting
Digital Fax – requires 1 GB per million of faxes sent/received to keep online for retrieval. The fax attachment is stored on the file system (not in the DB) and requires an average of 100 KB each one (100 GB of disk space per million of faxes)
Contact Manager – 3 KB per each contact in the directories (600 MB per 200,000 contacts)
Advanced Queueing – requires 1.5 GB per million of calls treated and agent detail records
CTI – Attendant Console – requires 0.5 GB per million of calls kept for the clients registry.
SSAM – no DB usage. The messages are stored on the file system, with an average of 3 MB for each recorded message
Call recording requires 1.4 GB DB space per million calls for metadata. Recordings are saved on the server filesystem. About 300KB of disk space for each recording minute is required on the Imagicle server disk. Having 500GB hard disk, it is possible to store up to 300,000 call recordings, 5 minutes each, which corresponds to 1 year «always on» recordings for 20 agents. It is possible to export recording to external Network File System for longer retention.
Users and other apps require a very small amount of space in the DB, negligible for the DB and Hard Drive storage calculation.
From Imagicle release 2019.Summer.1, we embed MS SQL Server 2017 Express Edition, which is not supported on Windows Server 2008 OS.
If you need more than 10GB online data (Large business scenario), a Microsoft® SQL Server commercial license must be used (not included with the product). For Microsoft SQL license considerations, you will need as many CALs as the number of users accessing the Imagicle applications or the core/processor license that includes unlimited CALs. The applications can be installed on the same server running Microsoft SQL Server or on a different machine (a dedicated machine is not required).
