Deploying the BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations on-premises gateway
The on-premises gateway provides quick and secure data transfer between the on-premises third-party products and BMC Helix applications. By using the gateway, organizations can keep data sources on their on-premises networks, yet securely use that on-premises data in BMC Helix services.
For more information about the scenarios in which you should deploy the gateway, see Deployment scenarios.
You deploy the gateway in an on-premises environment on either Docker containers or Podman containers.
Use the following topics to deploy the on-premises gateway on Docker and Podman containers:
Task | Action | Reference |
|---|---|---|
1 | Review the release notes for known deployment or product issues. | |
2 | Review the latest deployment use cases to understand whether changes in your system architecture are required. | |
3 | Review system requirements to make sure your current systems still meet the requirements. | |
4 | Download the container images and utility files required for the upgrade. | |
5 | (Optional) If both BMC Helix Intelligent Integrations and BMC Helix applications are deployed in your on-premises environment as part of the BMC Helix IT Operations Management on-premises entitlement, set up the authentication for the on-premises gateway. | |
6 | Deploy the on-premises gateway on Docker and Podman containers. | |
| 7 | (Optional) Provide high availability for the on-premises gateway by deploying it in an active-passive high-availability configuration. | Configuring the on-premises gateway for high availability |
