Small workgroup deployment

The small workgroup deployment best fits a small to moderate size team that does not have many IT Compliance Guidelines related to application deployment.

With this model, AppScan® Source server components reside on a dedicated computer, likely on the same subnet as computers running the AppScan Source client components. The expectation is that a local AppScan Source administrator manages AppScan Source user accounts and that no integration exists with a corporate LDAP Directory Server. In addition, the assumption is that a source control management client on the computer provides access to source code or a copy of the source also exists on the computer.

This model enables team collaboration with a minimal amount of deployment overhead and administration. It is important to understand that this deployment model includes:

  • Security analysts and developers connect to the AppScan Enterprise Server
  • Auditors/managers connect to the Enterprise Console component of AppScan Enterprise Server through a web browser
  • AppScan Source server components run on a dedicated computer with access to source code

An installation for a small workgroup deployment consists of the client and server components that are necessary to run AppScan Source components on multiple computers on a network.

Server Components

  • AppScan Source Database
  • AppScan Source for Automation

Client Components

  • AppScan Source for Analysis
  • AppScan Source Command Line Interface
  • AppScan Source for Development for Eclipse, RAD, MobileFirst (not selected by default)
  • Windows™ only: AppScan Source for Development Visual Studio plugins (not selected by default)(Visual Studio plugin options are available only if the installer has detected Microsoft™ Visual Studio on your system)

The following diagram depicts a small workgroup deployment of the AppScan Source components.
