Federated Deployment (Cell Environment)
Federated architecture best fits customers that execute high load (thousands of transactions per second or more) in their gateways.
The cell environment implements the federated architecture by distributing DPOD's Store and DPOD's agents across different federated servers.
The cell environment is used for performance, not for HA/DR scenarios.
All cell environments should go through a sizing process in order to make sure to meet the requirements. Please submit an issue to IBM Support to start a sizing process.
More details and a detailed installation procedure may be found in Cell Environment installation procedure.
Developer Edition
The developer edition may be installed on a small virtual server or a laptop. It includes both the operating system (CentOS) and the application.

DPOD Simulator
The DPOD simulator is used for demonstrations and POCs. It may be installed on a small virtual server or a laptop, and includes containers (Docker) that run DPOD along with gateways, MQ and more components to simulate a complete and rich environment with real data constantly flowing into DPOD.
Use the simulator for demonstrations and POCs.
It is free to use, and is provided under a restricted license.
