Hi

I was planning on hosting customized broadleaf application.
I figured the following servers would be required.

1. For Admin Panel (admin.war)
2. For Main application (site.war)
3. A web server (for holding assets and directing to application server)
4. Solr search server
5. Database server.

Could anybody guide me regarding what configurations for each of these servers would i require?

You probably don't need #3; the Broadleaf asset server all goes through the site.war.

I would recommend using Tomcat for the site and admin, either Postgres or MySQL for the DB server and then following the Linux installation instructions for Solr 5+. You might also consider using Memcached for a session store if you are load balancing across different Tomcat servers.

Thanks for help phillip.
I had initially developed database on Oracle, but i guess i'll have to migrate to MySQL. [Oracle being too costly for commercial use]
