Metron is composed of many components and installing all of these on a single host, especially a virtualized one, will greatly stress the resources of the host. The host will require at least 8 GB of RAM and a fair amount of patience. It is highly recommended that you shut down all unnecessary services.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

The computer used to deploy Apache Metron will need to have the following components installed.

Running the following script can help validate whether you have all the prerequisites installed and running correctly.
