Service gateway
A service gateway connects the StreamStudio web portal to the Runtime repository, the Collector archive, and the User directories.
When a user logs in to StreamStudio, the service gateway authenticates the user credentials in the user directory and in the Security repository. The service gateway then gives the user access to certain web applications and documents as defined in the Web Access repository.
Each Application domain used to run StreamStudio must include a service gateway application. For failover reasons, you can add a secondary service gateway.
