Where to install Marketing Operations and the Marketing Platform
The following diagram provides a brief overview of where to install Marketing Operations. It illustrates the most basic functional installation.
You may require a more complex, disparate installation to meet your security and performance requirements.
Marketing Operations: For best performance, install Marketing Operations on its own machine, where no other HCL® Marketing Software products are installed, or on a machine that it shares with only the Marketing Platform.
The Marketing Operations system tables should be on a separate machine.
Marketing Operations reports package: The reports package for Marketing Operations contains the IBM Cognos® package only. (Other applications also have reporting schemas to configure, but Marketing Operations does not.) Install the reports package on the IBM Cognos system.
Marketing Platform: The Marketing Platform application contains the HCL® common navigation, reporting, user administration, security, scheduling, and configuration management features. For each HCL Marketing Software environment, you must install and deploy the Marketing Platform once.
