Standalone deployment workflow
Available in ≥ 3.4.x-funcrel
Overview
For end-user results consultation without analysis capabilities, you can deploy CAST Imaging in “read-only/standalone” mode specifically for the following two use cases:
- CAST Dashboards (Engineering/Management/Security) only
- Viewer only
This type of deployment is designed for environments where:
- No application analysis is performed in the installed instance
- Users only need to view results through CAST Dashboards or the “viewer”
- Application analysis occurs on a separate, dedicated CAST Imaging installation
- Application analysis results are manually transferred to the read-only CAST Imaging installation and declared in the UI for end user access
This can be achieved by installing only the following components either on two separate dedicated machines or one single machine (these deployment scenarios are discussed in the relevant installation documentation for Microsoft Windows and Linux via Docker).
| Deployment scenario | Required components |
|---|---|
| CAST Dashboards only | imaging-services (must always be installed first)dashboards (requires access to the imaging-services component) |
| Viewer only | imaging-services (must always be installed first)imaging-viewer (requires access to the imaging-services component) |
This documentation explains the workflow post-installation, i.e. how to import the applications for your end-users. Choose the deployment option below to find out more:
