What you will need

NEMO is a standard Django/Python web application. The following components are required for a production NEMO deployment:

Docker
TLS certificate for encrypted communication
An external authentication server (usually LDAP or Kerberos) for NEMO to authenticate users against
- A Kerberos keytab and service account if you choose to authenticate with Kerberos
A database to suit your organization's expected usage load of NEMO
- SQLite will suffice for most organizations
- PostgreSQL is recommended for larger organizations with hundreds of concurrent users

Recommended infrastructure

These components are recommended for NEMO to work well:

A dedicated computer or virtual machine to run NEMO
Docker on any operating system
DNS name to point to the web server (such as https://nemo.example.org)
Nginx - static content server and reverse proxy, chosen for its ease of customization and minimal dependencies
