Learn about the deployment process - this includes understanding what you need to prepare, the installation process, transitioning to it from legacy deployments of CAST AIP and updating/upgrading to new releases.

Prerequisites

To perform a successful deployment in your organization, it is important to understand:

• the different ways that it can be deployed
• hardware sizing
• the deployment requirements

Installation process

Two scenarios are available:

• If you are a new CAST customer or if you are standing up new hardware specifically to onboard a new Application, you can perform a New customer installation
• If you are an existing CAST customer already using "legacy" CAST AIP and you are planning a transition AIP Console to onboard a new Application:
  • you can re-purpose your existing "legacy" CAST AIP deployment and perform an Existing customer installation
  • you can also Import an Application managed with CAST Management Studio into AIP Console
