Websydian Installation and Operation

• General Websydian Installation

• DWA (Distributed Websydian Architecture))

• iSeries Web Server Interface

• Windows CGI Interface

• Setting up a Server-Side Scripting Environment

General Websydian Installation

Websydian is installed by executing the shipped installation file. Read more here about what is included in the Websydian distribution.

After you have installed Websydian using the Websydian Installation program, the CA Plex development environment must be set up for Websydian:

• Installing Websydian runtime objects for iSeries
• Setting up Your CA Plex Environment
• Generate and Build Considerations

DWA (Distributed Websydian Architecture)

The Distributed Websydian Architecture (DWA) interface is developed for high performance and scalability in Websydian applications. By applying the DWA interface, a Websydian application can be scaled by distributing the processing on several application servers.  

In contrast to the CWA interface, DWA does not terminate the Websydian application process after a web request and thereby all database and communication connections are preserved.

The documents below describe the installation and setup of DWA:

• Websydian DWA Deployment
• Documentation of the DWA Interface
• DWA Deployment Guides

iSeries Web Server Interface (CWA iSeries)

The documents below describe usage, installation and operation using the iSeries CWA interface.

• How iSeries Web Server Support Works
• Installing Websydian Library on iSeries Server
• Install Application on iSeries Web Server
• Guidelines for Websydian iSeries Operation Procedures

Windows CGI Interface (CWA Windows)

For information on how to install a Websydian CWA application on various web servers on the Windows platform please follow the link below:

• CWA Deployment Guides

Setting up a Server-Side Scripting Environment

A server-side scripting environment must be set up in order to run scripting applications developed with Websydian:

• Go to the Documentation of Server-Side Scripting with Websydian for more details.

Development of web applications in an ASP or JSP server-side scripting environment has been fully implemented in Websydian on the Winbdows platform.

The result is an architecture giving full access to the possibilities of server-side scripting and at the same time maintaining the model-based approach and the high level of security provided by Websydian.
