3D Project As-Built requires installing a unique database and a specific collection of SDx software components to enable this feature, but the hardware and software requirements for the project are the same as for SDx in general. See HxGN SDx Hardware and Software Recommendations for the detailed hardware and software recommendations for the SDx servers and clients.
The Visualization Data Service (VDS) components can be installed on the application server alongside SDx or alone on their own distributed servers, but the VDS components should be set up after you have already installed and set up your SDx application server, created the SDx primary site for 3D Project As-Built, and created the GDM schema in the site's database. For details, see Install VDS Software Prerequisites.
