Single Server Configuration (Recommended)

The single server configuration is the simplest way to configure APM Connect. However, it does include an embedded database. The following image depicts this configuration.

External Database Configuration

Many organizations choose to separate their databases. It is possible to install the intermediate repository database on an external server, and to keep the APM Connect Systems database on a different server. The following image depicts this configuration.
