Description

For Statistica Enterprise customers, it is always recommended to have Statistica Server, MAS and Livescore installed on separate servers. Since each of them could occupy a good amount of system resources when loaded with heavy jobs, placing them on individual servers improves the resource utilization and performance efficiency. Here below summarizes whether IIS is required for each application component. This information could be helpful for product installation planning and configuration.

Issue/Introduction

This article explains whether IIS (Internet Information Services) is required for each application component of Statistica.

Notes: WebStatistica service can run by itself and the user can place the Web UI files on a separate Web server manually. And tt needs to be installed manually  and configured with the Web UI files.
