Server Installation

In addition to the data source components, the following installation procedures are based on the second scenario (refer to Scenario 2 for more details), which assumes the installation of all Nectari server components are on a server other than the main data source system’s server. An installation using one of the other scenarios can be similar, with a few exceptions specified as notes.

Planning and Client Infrastructure Assessment

Before proceeding with the Nectari installation, the Nectari specialist needs to plan according to the customer’s infrastructure and data volume characteristics. Parameters to consider for installation planning include, but are not limited to:

  • The servers available disk space
  • The servers CPU
  • The servers memory (RAM) setup
  • The servers disk speed
  • The network speed
  • The data source system (ERP/CRM) setup and current data
  • The database volume
  • The database index setup
  • The database engine configuration (cache memory, mirror, and so forth)

These parameters can make the installation easy or very complex.

Important

It is recommended to have a planning and infrastructure assessment discussion with a Nectari specialist in case of a complex installation, and to ensure proper performance after Nectari is installed.
