Not Sure Which FortiAnalyzer Fits?
Weigh virtual against hardware deployment, and compare capacity across every FortiAnalyzer model to find
the right fit.
Two models are available. FortiAnalyzer VM-S is a subscription that bundles the VM
license, FortiCare Premium support, IOC, Outbreak Detection, and Security Automation into a single
stackable SKU (5, 50, or 500 GB/day). The perpetual model licenses a base VM plus stackable upgrade
licenses of 1, 5, 25, 100, 500, or 2000 GB per day, with support and services a la carte.
FortiAnalyzer VM supports major hypervisors including VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V,
and KVM, and deploys in public clouds such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Check the release notes
for your FortiAnalyzer version for the current support matrix.
Capacity is set by your stacked licenses, from 1 GB per day to many terabytes. When
deployed in collector mode, FortiAnalyzer VM supports unlimited GB per day, forwarding logs to
analyzer nodes for processing.
A minimum of 4 vCPUs and 16 GB of RAM, with no upper limit — scale CPU, memory, and
storage with your log volume. Up to 12 virtual network interfaces are supported.
Choose the VM for cloud-first environments, flexible scaling, and fast deployment
without racking hardware. Choose an appliance for predictable, dedicated performance with
purpose-built storage. Both run the same FortiAnalyzer software and services.
