This section gives a brief overview of what each component is used for and how you install or configure the component. For more detailed descriptions of these components, see Components to run StreamServer applications in the Control Center documentation.
StreamServer can be installed and run on Windows or UNIX using the Framework and StreamServer Setup.
The Framework includes a management gateway and the underlying software to run StreamServe applications, such as, service gateways, Archiver applications, and task scheduler applications.

On Windows, the management gateway services use the local administrator account. These services require local administrator access to create and remove other Windows services.
To manage the StreamServe applications on a computer, each user needs a login to the management gateway. A Management Gateway Administrator with the user name Administrator is included with the Framework and StreamServer Setup, this user is assigned the administrator role. For information about setting up management gateway users, see Managing users in the Control Center documentation.
In distributed environments, you should have one central enterprise repository at your company or organization.
After the installation, you use Control Center to create the enterprise repository or the Command Line Utilities to generate the scripts to create the repository. The default name for enterprise repository is StrsSER.
Depending on what you want to achieve in terms of document storage and access, you organize StreamServe applications in application domains. All applications in one application domain share the same repositories, connection profiles, document types, and channels for reprocess and preview.
This database is used to store job and document data for the StreamServe applications in one application domain.
After the installation, you use either Control Center or the Command Line Utilities to generate the scripts for the runtime repository. The default name for the runtime repository is StrsData.
