Sample Deployment Architectures

The following examples show different types of deployment architectures you may choose to use with Configuration Hub.

Example 1

The following example shows Configuration Hub, Proficy Authentication, and Operations Hub installed on one central computer, with iFIX (SCADA), View nodes, and Historian all on different computers. This diagram represents a highly recommended deployment architecture.

Example 2:

The following example shows an iFIX SCADA (SCADA1) with Configuration Hub and Proficy Authentication installed. Operations Hub, the Historian Server (Historian1), and additional SCADAs (SCADA1 and SCADA2) are on different computers connecting to that existing SCADA1 node.

Example 3

The following example shows a computer with Operations Hub, Proficy Authentication, and Configuration Hub all on the same box, with other computers with iFIX (SCADA1 and SCADA2) connecting to that existing node, along with web-based clients.

Example 4

The following deployment architecture illustrates Historian (Historian1), Proficy Authentication, and Configuration Hub all on the same box, with the iFIX SCADAs (SCADA1 and SCADA2) connecting to the existing Historian1 server, along with web-based clients.

Example 5

The following example shows iFIX SCADA (SCADA1) with Proficy Authentication and Configuration Hub installed with other SCADAs (SCADA2 and SCADA3) on different computers connecting to the existing node with SCADA1, along with web-based clients.
