The CM4D Peruse installation includes the Peruse web application and its supporting Windows services, plus the HOOPS Communication server. Peruse is installed as a self-contained application. The Peruse installer includes:
- Configuration of Peruse with SSL Certificates
- Configuration of Security Manager Endpoint URL and CM4D API Endpoint
- Licensing Server location for obtaining application license information
- Configuration of HOOPS server with path to certificate files
- Test Database Connection (with TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 disabled)
The following additional applications/services are required (on the same computer or other network server) for support or configuration of the CM4D Peruse server installation:
- ATS Security and Configuration Manager – Based on OAuth2; requires the necessary access control. Local user credentials are supported but Security Manager can also use external login providers like Azure Active Directory Services. Logins can also be secured via captcha. Minimum version required: ATS Security 1.10+.
- ATS Licensing Plugin (v4.0+)
- CM4D Configuration Plugin
- CM4D API Service - The Peruse installer is dependent on a specific version of the CM4D API. Therefore during the installation when you enter the location of the CM4D API, it checks the version of the API to confirm it is compatible. The CM4D API service is installed using the CM4D Configuration installer.
- CM4D Site and Results Databases - Peruse relies on a connection to the CM4D Site and Results databases.
- Results Services – Peruse requires these services to populate the Results database with data from the CM4D databases.
