- RAMCloud runs only on Linux.
- We currently use RHEL6 at Stanford, but we have used CentOS 5 in the past.
- See also https://ramcloud.stanford.edu/jira/browse/RAM-553 "RAM-553: build broken on newer Ubuntu, OpenSuse"
- For highest performance, we recommend using Infiniband networking. RAMCloud supports Mellanox NICs (we have run with both ConnectX2 and ConnectX3 cards). RAMCloud also runs with standard kernel-based TCP/IP, but performance will be considerably worse than with Infiniband.
