    This article shows how to integrate the Server Gateway C++ SDK and run the sample project.

    ## Set up the development environment [#set-up-the-development-environment]

    Make sure your server meets the following requirements.

    ### Hardware environment [#hardware-environment]

    **Operating system**

    * Ubuntu 14.04 or higher
    * CentOS: 7.0 or higher

    **CPU architecture**

    * arm64
    * x86-64

    If you need to run the SDK on other architectures, [submit a ticket](https://agora-ticket.agora.io/) to contact technical support.

    **Performance**

    * CPU：8-core, 1.8 GHz or higher.
    * 2 GB of RAM or higher. 4 GB or higher is recommended.

    **Network**

    * The server is connected to the internet and has an internet IP.
    * The server can access `*.agora.io` and `*.agoralab.co`.

    ### Software environment [#software-environment]

    * glibc 2.18 or later
    * gcc 4.8 or later

    If you are using Ubuntu, taking Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS as an example, install the following dependencies in your server:

    ```bash
    # Install aptitude
    sudo apt install aptitude
    # Install build-essential libx11-dev libxcomposite-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxdamage-dev cmake
    sudo aptitude install libx11-dev libxcomposite-dev libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxdamage-dev cmake
    ```

    If you are using CentOS, taking CentOS 7.9.2009 as an example, install the following dependencies in your server:

    ```bash
    sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
    sudo yum install wget
    sudo yum groupinstall X11
    ```
