PlateSpin® Portability Suite provides a single installation program for both PlateSpin® Migrate and PlateSpin® Protect products. The program checks your system for the necessary prerequisites and interactively installs the required software components.
The production configuration of both PlateSpin® Migrate and PlateSpin® Protect products consists of the same set of software components:
A database server: Portability Suite works with Microsoft* SQL Server* 2005. If you do not have a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 database server, you can use a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database server included with your Portability Suite distribution.
Portability Suite Server: The runtime execution engine underlying both PlateSpin® Migrate and PlateSpin® Protect products.
Portability Suite Client: Client software for user interaction with the Portability Suite Server.
These components can be either collocated on a single host or installed on separate hosts.
