The only problem is a lack of support for ARM. But there's a ticket opened on their JIRA issue tracker.

Can I install LISA on a Raspberry Pi ?
--------------------------------------
Quick answer : Yes.

Long answer : RPI is an ARM architecture and actually Mongodb is unsupported officially.
So it isn't packaged for raspbian for example. But you should be able to compile it (take ~7hours).

There's a ticket already opened on their JIRA for ARM support, and they are working on it.

By now, I suggest to run mongodb (and the LISA server) in a virtual machine or a dedicated x86 server.

I love Python because there's a lot of API written in Python language and as LISA is a built to connect API between them
it was logic to use a language easy to learn and easy to use.
