Should I use a separate JAVA instance for ADS

[Former Member]

My customer has Enterprise portal and R/3 installed already. Now they want ADS installed. Would it be best to install a new JAVA instance for ADS or should I use the existing JAVA instance that is installed for the portal? I think the customer is preferring to use a separate instance so nothing already installed breaks. Also, if I do use a separate JAVA instance, should I connect to the portal through SLD?

Thanks,

Peggy

Hi,

I would suggest you to use existing Portal system for your ADS config. It would not disturb any existing cofiguration of your portal system and also does not put much load on the system.

Installing a new system only for ADS configuration does not make much sense.

Thanks

Hello,

Installation of new java instance for ADS (or) using the one available inthe portal java instance depends on the following factors:-

1) How much extra load can the existing java instance handle

2) What is the user case and expected load for ADS in the customer landscape?

3) Whether ADS will be used exclusively for portal ?

Following link may give you a better idea of whether to use ADS within applicaiton portal (or) use standalone ADS
