+Netris Controller
+=================
+
+We recommend two Ubuntu 24.04 servers with the below specs. Netris controller can also run on other Linux OSes or on a shared Kubernetes cluster.

+Netris SoftGate HS (Horizontally Scalable)
+==========================================
+
+A minimum of 4 dedicated servers are required for an HA (highly available) active-active SoftGate HS cluster. Two SoftGates will forward stateful traffic (SNAT), and two others will forward the stateless traffic (DNAT, 1:1 NAT, Layer-4 Load Balancing, etc.) Each group (stateful and stateless) can be scaled horizontally by deploying more servers as CPU & RAM utilization necessitates.
