QMetry on-premise solution has all the functionality of the SaaS solution and gives better control and check over third-party products that require business regulation. This guide provides the hardware requirements needed to install QMetry, along with various supported deployment options.   

Deployment options

Clustered Deployment

This example demonstrates a fully distributed enterprise deployment of QMetry. 

Benefits 

  • High Availability
    • Active-active clustering : Cluster multiple active servers to ensure users have uninterrupted access to critical applications in the event of unexpected hardware failure.
    • Distributed Load : Use any form of load-balancing technology – hardware or software – to intelligently distribute load across your Data Center cluster.
    • Redundancy : Data Center deployments integrate with industry standard technologies for database clustering and shared file systems to minimize single points of failure.
  • Performance at Scale
    • Concurrent user capacity : Each node in your Data Center cluster increases capacity for concurrent users without sacrificing performance.
    • Application resilience : Increase application throughput to avoid performance degradation in the event of load spikes.
    • Highest quality of service : Dedicate nodes for automated tasks to ensure the highest possible quality of service for critical teams within your organization.
  • Instant Scalability
    • Hassle-free deployment : New nodes can join the cluster without downtime. Existing nodes automatically synchronize indexes and plugins with each new member.
    • Rapid re-indexing : Quickly re-index your application without locking the system, ensuring your users have maximum uptime.

    • Predictable costs : Our Data Center deployment option is licensed by user count, not by the number of servers or CPUs, so you can scale your environment without additional license costs.


Stand Alone Server Deployment

Stand Alone Server: QMetry web/app server and the database are installed on the same server.

This example is for a single server deployment of QMetry with Application Server such as Tomcat and Database System such as MySQL. In this type of installation, QMetry application, database system, and application server are installed on the same server.

Benefits : Simple and Quick to Install on a Single Server

To better understand the deployment refer the QMetry Installation Guide.

QMetry Reports Deployment 

Security

  • Authentication: QMetry provides secure authentication using SAML 2.0, LDAP or QMetry's in-built authentication using enterprise grade, widely accepted JWT.
  • Authorization: QMetry allows Admin users to define Roles and permission at each resource level, enforced at API level.
  • Transport Layer Security: QMetry mandates use of HTTPS for cloud based installations and customers can configure their domain for on-premise installation.
  • People & Access: QMetry support team does not have any access to On-Premise installations. For cloud customers, QMetry’s support and monitoring teams access application data only for purposes of application health monitoring and performing system or application maintenance, and upon customer request for support purposes. Only authorized QMetry employees and consultants have access to application data.
