1.3 Target Audience

This document is targeting the experienced IT Person who is tasked with system sizing for a

docuBridge system, installing a docuBridge system on a single server or evaluating the

technical background of docuBridge for planning or decision making processes.

This document may also be of interest to a Project Manager or Department Manager with a

casual understanding of IT Technology who wants to gain insight on the technical platform a

docuBridge system is operated on.

1.4 Terms & Definitions

The following list defines some terms and definitions used throughout the scope of this

document.

Component Description

Primary Server The docuBridge Primary Server is the core of the docuBridge system where all available services are hosted and executed.

Extension Server

The docuBridge Enterprise Edition supports the addition of Extension Servers to the system.

Those servers can be configured to host distributed Job Service Instances.

Database Server The docuBridge system requires a database to store data. The Database Server hosts this database and makes it available to the docuBridge system.

Instance

An Instance represents a logically configured set of related services connecting to one CoreServices. One docuBridge System consists of one Instance with services hosted on one physical server or distributed across multiple servers (Job Service).

2. General System Overview

2.1 The docuBridge System Architecture

Figure 2-1

The docuBridge System is based on a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Unlike previous

versions of docuBridge, the introduction of Services separates – for the first time – the business

logic of specific tasks from the user interface and encapsulates each task in a better

manageable entity.

The result is a system that is scalable to the actual needs– the set of services required to

operate a docuBridge system is clustered into an Instance. Instances can be operated on a

single physical server or spread across several physical servers to provide redundancies and

increase performance.

The service-oriented approach also makes the system easier to validate: updates to the

system can now be issued to a specific, independently versioned Service or set of Services.

When implementing such an update, the impact on the system is easily determined and re-

validation of the system can be controlled by an appropriate risk assessment.

Also, the service-oriented approach reduces the workload on the end user’s system – either

the local PC or a terminal services environment: the client is no longer performing heavy-duty

tasks with local resources, thus eating up valuable memory and CPU cycles – it will simply

issue a job to a centralized service that will then take care of the actually processing. The end

user may even shut down his system after the job request has been send!

The general performance of the system should increase: the fact that in many cases less

information is transferred over the network because the majority of the work is moved to the

Services means a higher throughput than ever before. Take publishing as an example: in the

past, the client requested all content files, transferred them over the network to the local

machine and eventually published back to a network drive. Twice, the data had to cross the

network lines – with a centralized Service taking care of the publishing, network transfer is kept

in a controlled, usually high-bandwidth environment, the corporate service center!

Last but not least, the service-oriented approach also supports tightened security, paying

tribute to the needs of many of our customers: all information in the system is accessed through

System Requirements Specification - docuBridge 5.7 General System Overview

the system. Publishing, for example, will take place centrally so no content files are transferred

to a local PC and the result will be stored in a centralized location. Access to this location now

is governed by access privileges, not simply physical access to the machine as such.

2.2 The Choice is Yours

The Service Oriented Architecture offers possibilities – and the good thing about it is that each

customer can choose how far to go: the system will run perfectly fine in a Single Instance

Environment on a single server, just like past versions did – or you might be looking into a

slightly larger system…

Customers installing into a Single Instance / Single Server Environment will still benefit from

many of the features lined out above. Additionally customers have the possibility to grow at any

time. When your existing implementation becomes too small, add processing capabilities. If the

system currently meets your expectations, there is no need to change it.

3. System Design Scenarios

3.1 Introduction

The docuBridge platform offers a variety of possible scenarios when it comes to designing the

environment the software is operating in. With this release of docuBridge, LORENZ supports

the following scenarios:

Primary Server

Primary Server + Extension Server(s)

Should you require assistance with the selection of an appropriate scenario or want to use a

scenario not lined out here, please contact LORENZ Support for assistance.

3.1.1 Primary Server

This scenario includes a single Server hosting the primary instance. This is what you will get by

installing the system without any customizations. The database may be on the same server or

on an external server. You can have several such servers at your site (for example to separate

testing from production). They will all operate independently of each other.

Figure 3-1

3.1.2 Primary + Extension Server(s)

Instead of running two docuBridge 5.7 instances on one server, you can decide that you want

to run both instances on separate servers. The database may be on one of these servers or on

an external server. As docuBridge is able execute jobs in parallel on one JobService this

scenario can be used to distribute the load on the Primary Server. This configuration allows to

e.g.

separate Publishing Jobs from Imports Jobs

distribute parallel Publishing on different machines to increase the overall performance

to make sure that one JobService is always available for Publishing or Import Jobs

etc.

In the following picture, the extension server runs an extension instance with a JobService only.

The primary instance on the primary server also runs a JobService.

6.3 Use of Virtualized Environments

LORENZ supports the use of virtualized environments, both for the docuBridge Application

Server and the docuBridge Client. Our own testing is, in part, performed on such environments.

However, LORENZ does not formally certify any virtualization platform because we consider

these platforms to be transparent, i.e., we expect the virtualization environment with an

installed supported or certified operating system to perform identically when compared to the

same operating system installed into a physical environment.

Nevertheless, LORENZ would like to remind customers that there are certain techniques that

can be applied to virtualized environments which may cause issues with the licensing engine of

LORENZ docuBridge. The hardware code for docuBridge is calculated based upon a

combination of characteristics of the system in which is it installed: BIOS, CPU, Primary HDD,

NIC MAC Address, Mainboard, and Operating System. If through the use of virtualization

specific procedures too many of these identifiers change (e.g. when moving a virtualized

environment to a different node) then the system will consider the license to be invalid.

6.4 Use of Terminal Emulation Environments

LORENZ also supports the use of terminal emulation environments such as CITRIX and

Windows Terminal Services.

LORENZ does not formally certify these environments because we consider these platforms to

be transparent. We expect the exposed operating system (e.g. Windows 7 on Windows 2008-

based environments) to behave identical to a true Windows 7 installation.

LORENZ considered with the specifics of such environments when designing the application

(e.g. separation of application and user-related data) and shall continue to do so where

appropriate in the future.

LORENZ is aware that certain technologies behave differently on terminal emulation

environments, including (but not limited to) display characteristic, support for Windows

Presentation Framework (WPF), etc. Where possible, we have tried to eliminate the impact of

such behavior, e.g. by not using complex animations which are known to have issues on such

environments.

LORENZ recommends using the ORACLE Data Access Components (ODAC) – also referred

to as “ORACLE Instant Client” – using the XCopy Distribution.

On docuBridge Application Servers running a 32bit Operating System, you need to install the

32bit ODAC package. On docuBridge Application Servers running a 64bit Operating System

(such as Windows Server 2008 R2), you need to install the 64bit packages of ODAC. The

ODAC package needs to be installed for .Net 4.

11. Appendix: Support Status

Status Description

Certified

If an item is listed as certified it means that LORENZ has successfully tested this item in combination with our products.

This category is considered very Low Risk from a customers’ perspective in terms of potential issues, validation requirements, etc.

Supported

If an item is listed as supported it means that LORENZ has seen this working in combination with our products, we have not included it in our “final” acceptance testing of the product.

This category is considered Low Risk from a customer’s perspective in terms of potential issues, validation, etc.

Not Recommended

If an item is listed as not recommended it means that even if it might be possible to use it in combination with our product, we have seen scenarios in which this combination resulted in issues (technical and business). Therefore we do not recommend the use of this item.

We will provide technical support on a “Best efforts” basis, but we are not likely to make changes to accommodate issues discovered. Additional charges may apply for supporting this category.

This category is considered a Medium Risk from the customer’s perspective in terms of potential issues, validation, etc.

Not Supported

If an item is listed as not supported, it means that we have found reproducible evidence that this item is causing issues in combinations with our products.

Could possibly work but we expect major issues (technical or business). We may be able to assist in some situations, but our official position is “Don’t do it!” and we may require a formal sign-off from the customer to that effect before providing assistance. Additional charges may apply for assisting with this category. Even a reasonably complete IQ/OQ/PQ process may not be sufficient to detect or avoid potential problems in this category.

This category is considered a Medium to High Risk from the customer’s perspective in terms of potential issues, validation, costs, etc.
