    See here:

    System Requirements for Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1.5

    Database
    Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager includes an embedded database, and this is the only choice in Small Business Edition. In the enterprise version, you may use the embedded database or one of the following versions of Microsoft SQL Server:

    • SQL Server 2005, SP4
    • SQL Server 2008, through SP4
    • SQL Server 2008 R2, through SP3
    • SQL Server 2012, through SP1
    • SQL Server 2014

    Pretty much it though. Depends on how many clients you have, but would suggest at least 4GB of RAM.

    I'd recommend checking out the Sizing and Scalability article below:

    http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH123242

    The PDF attached to it provides guidelines (page 15 onwards) on how many SEPMs and SQL Server cores are required to support certain numbers of clients (and at different heartbeat frequencies).  Definitely worth a read!
