What modes are available for deploying CAST Imaging?

Overview

CAST Imaging is flexible and can be installed in a number of different ways to suit your organization’s requirements, either direct on Microsoft Windows, or within Docker containers on Linux:

• Direct on Microsoft Windows (virtual or physical machines)
  • All components on one machine
  • Distributed across multiple machines (load balancing)
• Within Docker containers (hosted on virtual or physical machines)
  • Backend on Linux
  • All components on one machine
  • Components distributed across multiple machines (load balancing)

Standalone

Install all components on one single Microsoft Windows machine or one single Linux machine within Docker. Ideal for POCs or testing purposes - or occasionally very small production deployments.

Enterprise/distributed mode

This “microservices architecture” mode is aimed at production deployments where components are distributed across multiple machines in load-balancing mode to improve performance for end-users and for analyses.
