Hello, I have to deploy BurpEnterprise with 10 to 20 agents for the moment on 1 machine. I have 2 questions : - Which sizing should I chose for the machine, you have reco for sizing for base and agents do I have to sum them up ? - Can deploy like 10 agents on a machine then decomission 5 of them to redeploy them somewhere else ? Regards

Thanks for your message Michael 1. The amount of system resources required for machines running Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is highly dependent on a variety of factors, including the nature and extent of the applications being scanned, the number of issues that are reported, and the number of active users of the web UI and REST API. The following table provides an indicative guide to the machine specifications that are recommended to ensure satisfactory performance. When provisioning machines, be aware that specifications might need to change later based on the experience of your actual usage. If you're running everything on one machine we recommend: Base installation: 10Gb of free disk space 16Gb of RAM 4 CPU cores + (for each additional agent) 20Gb of free disk space 4Gb of RAM 4 CPU cores - https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/enterprise/getting-started/system-requirements#database-size 2. Yes, Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is licensed for a specified number of agents. You can install as many agents on as many computers as you wish. But the total number of logical agents that will actually be used at any moment is limited to the number in your license. - https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/enterprise/reference/agents Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
