Planning an FME Server Installation

Planning an installation of FME Server depends on the following primary considerations:

• Understanding FME Server and N-Tier Architecture
• Planning for Fault Tolerance, including:
  • Recovery: Restarting components and jobs after crashes.
  • Failover: Switching to a secondary FME Server Core in case the first fails.
• Planning for Disaster Recovery: Recovering from data center failure.
• Planning for Security Updates: Applying security updates to the FME Server web application and database servers.
• Planning for Scalability and Performance: Ensuring high performance.
