NWCE, ADS and Vertex

[Sajid]

We are a HPUX 11.31 shop. We are implementing Adobe Interactive Forms which requires ADS. We also have Vertex tax software which uses NW CE 7.1. Per SAP's ADS Landscape considerations doc, ADS can be implemented on NWCE. So, we are thinking to have a single Central NWCE instance catering to both ADS and Vertex. However the issue is, NWCE 7.1 is not available for HPUX 11.31 and Vertex required NWCE 7.1 (catch 22).

What you suggest would be the best strategy? Install Central NWCE 7.1 on a Widnows Server in which case both will be supported, or separate it on HPUX and Windows (maintenance overhead but performance gains?) or any other combination?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Zak,

ADS is not a memory consuming or highly loaded application. But only concern is if ADS is installed on the same host of CI it will be good even it its not there also fine. So better go for a NWCE 7.1 and ADS and vertex on top of that.

Thanks,

Hi Zak,

As yourself told in the description it depends what is your priority:

1. For easy maintenance, installation and fast support: Install on Windows Server

2. For maximum performance: Separate them in Windows and HPUX

Thanks,
