Address Verification is developed using the

C++

programming language. Address Verification provides different software packages to suit the hardware and software environment in which you want to install Address Verification. The Address Verification software packages contain C and Java based APIs.

You can install Address Verification on devices that run any of the following configurations:

Address Verification is designed to be highly efficient in its memory and resource usage. To ensure best possible performance, install Address Verification on a device that has fast input and output systems and sufficient memory.

The device on which you install Address Verification should have a minimum of 512 MB RAM.

Before you finalize the memory requirements, consider the size of the reference address databases that are required for your specific needs. Preloading databases significantly improves the performance of Address Verification. The device on which you install Address Verification must have sufficient RAM to preload all the required databases.

The complete set of worldwide postal reference databases including supplementary databases for address enrichments requires around 40 GB of storage space. However, for typical installations that do not require all the databases, 20 to 25 GB of RAM should be sufficient. If you need to preload databases that together have a size of 3 GB or more, use a 64-bit operating system that offers you more flexibility with the RAM size. The maximum available RAM for a 32-bit operating system is 3.2 GB.
