Production Deployment

Sybase recommends that you install components on separate servers.

A typical production environment requires four or more servers:

A machine for the Ops Console database
A machine for the feed handler
A machine for the RAPCache and RAPCache subscriber
A machine for the RAPStore and RAPStore subscriber
For very high-volume systems, separate machines to process file transfers

Standard production deployment scenario

Note: RAP offers mixed-platform support. Publishers and subscribers can run on different operating systems. For example, a publisher can run on SPARC/Solaris and a subscriber on AMD/Linux.

Installation Requirements for RAP Components
The table Installation requirements for RAP components contains the minimum disk space and RAM required by the RAP components.
Scalability Deployment
High-volume systems perform most efficiently by using separate machines for transferring derived data.
