Before you install Adobe Commerce, you must do the following:

Set up one or more hosts that meet the system requirements.
If you are setting up more than one web node with load balancing, set up and test that part of your system before you install the application.
Make sure you can back up your entire system at various points during the installation so that you can roll it back if there are issues.

NOTE

We assume you are installing the Adobe Commerce in a development environment, that you have root user access to the machine, and that the machine does not need to be highly secure. If you are setting up a more secure machine, we strongly recommend you consult a network administrator for additional assistance.

We strongly recommend you update and upgrade your operating system software. These upgrades can provide security and software fixes that might prevent future problems. Do not know what any of this means? Check out our installation overview page.
