COMPATIBILITY


KIX compatibility (version 18)

In KIX, the installation process is much simpler as the software is installed using pre-configured Docker containers. In other words, KIX supplies its own operating environment and database.

This makes it easier to use the software on different operating systems, since the key aspect for the host environment is simply that a compatible and executable Docker version has been provided. That's why we recommend checking whether your planned host environment supports the use of Docker before installing KIX.

The use of KIX requires Docker and Docker-Compose - both in a current version (if not already included in the respective Docker installation).

Instructions for the subsequent installation of the KIX Docker container:

Further information is also available in the KIX forum.

For the host environments of KIX, we recommend operating environments based on AMD64 architecture and Linux operating systems for which the corresponding Docker runtimes are available. We recommend KIX on host environments with Debian and Ubuntu LTS. Use on MacOS or Windows is possible for test purposes, but is not explicitly supported.

You can find detailed installation instructions online in our administration documentation.
