Microsoft Connected Cache for Enterprise and Education Requirements

This article details the requirements and recommendations for using Microsoft Connected Cache for Enterprise and Education (MCC).

Licensing requirements

  • Valid Azure subscription: To use the Microsoft Connected Cache for Enterprise and Education (MCC) service, you'll need a valid Azure subscription that can be used to provision the necessary Azure resources.

    If you don't have an Azure subscription already, you can create an Azure pay-as-you-go account, which requires a credit card for verification purposes. For more information, see the Azure Free Account FAQ.

    The Azure resources used for MCC will be free to you during this public preview.

  • E3/E5 or A3/A5 license: Your organization must have one of the following license subscriptions for each device that downloads content from an MCC cache node.

Cache node host machine requirements

General requirements

  • Any previous installations of MCC must be uninstalled before installing the latest version of MCC.
  • These listed endpoints must be reachable by the host machine.
  • The host machine must have no other services / applications utilizing port 80 (for example, ConfigManager or Distribution Point).
  • The host machine must have at least 4 GB of free memory.

Additional requirements for Windows host machines

  • The Windows host machine must be using Windows 11 or Windows Server 2022 with the Latest Cumulative Update (LCU) applied.
  • The Windows host machine must support nested virtualization.
  • The Windows host machine must have WSL2 installed.

Additional requirements for Linux host machines

  • The Linux host machine must be using one of the following Operating Systems:

    • Ubuntu 20.04
    • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.* or 9.*
      • If using RHEL, the default container engine (Podman) must be replaced with Moby

Networking recommendations for host machines

  • Multiple network interface cards (NICs) on a single MCC instance aren't supported.
  • 1 Gbps NIC is the minimum speed recommended but any NIC is supported.
  • The NIC and BIOS should support SR-IOV for best performance.

Host machine sizing recommendations
