Not Sure Which FortiMail VM Fits Your Environment?
Compare vCPU tiers, memory limits, and throughput across the full FortiMail VM lineup — VM01
through VM08, and beyond — to find the right fit for your organization's mail volume.
VM08 is licensed for 8 vCPUs maximum, the largest tier in this lineup, built for
large enterprises with high mail volume.
VM08 supports 4 to 64 GB of RAM and 250 GB minimum up to 8 TB of storage.
VM08 doubles VM04's vCPU count to 8, quadruples maximum RAM (16 GB to 64 GB), doubles
maximum storage (4 TB to 8 TB), and roughly doubles email routing throughput (306K to 675K
messages/hour).
Fortinet offers VM16 (16 vCPU) and VM32 (32 vCPU) licenses beyond VM08 for the
largest carriers and ISPs needing well over a million messages per hour of throughput.
