For new Syndeia Users
Deployment Architecture
Syndeia includes the Syndeia Cloud web application and Syndeia clients. Refer to Syndeia Architecture to get an overview of Syndeia deployment architecture.
For production deployment, we recommend the following.
Deploy Syndeia Cloud and use the Web Dashboard
Deploy Syndeia clients, i.e. Syndeia plugins for SysML modeling tools (e.g. MagicDraw/Cameo, Rhapsody), or Syndeia Standalone.
Use Syndeia Cloud as the backend for Syndeia clients. See Cloud mode.
For evaluations, we recommend the following.
Follow the same approach as for production deployment. It is best to evaluate what you will be using in production.
Alternatively, users can just install and use the Syndeia clients (MagicDraw/Rhapsody plugins) without Syndeia Cloud. See Local mode. This approach is good for learning about the model transformation capabilities of Syndeia but is not a scalable and recommended approach for production deployment.
