Installation types

You can run the DMS server in the following ways:

• Hosted in IIS  Here the DMS server is hosted inside IIS and let’s IIS handle all the web access.
• All on one machine  You can install JewelSuite and the DMS server on one single machine. You can then use MongoDB*.
• Client and server, small team  You can install JewelSuite on client machines and DMS server on one single server. On this server you can install MongoDB*.
• Client and server 3 tier  You can install JewelSuite on client machines and DMS server on 2 servers (data tier and logic tier). On one server you can install MongoDB; on the other server you can install the DMS services which will be hosted by IIS.
• Content Service  You can install DMS content service on a load-balanced cluster. Notification and Identify cannot be installed on a cluster.

* MongoDB is freely available.

Note that newer versions of DMS (2019.3 and higher) only support HTTPS connections to the DMS service. The need for HTTPS connection does not apply when the JewelSuite application is installed on the same machine.
