Basic Deployment Model

The basic deployment model is intended for small, low-demand situations, such as a small company local network or an evaluation setup of OneSpan Authentication Server.

Figure: Basic deployment model

OneSpan Authentication Server

A single OneSpan Authentication Server installation, which handles authentication, auditing, and administration tasks. It uses the embedded MariaDB database as its data store.

Administration

Administration is performed on the server. We recommend that import procedures are scheduled for off-peak authentication times, to reduce the load on the server.

Replication

No replication required.

Auditing

During a basic OneSpan Authentication Server installation, the embedded MariaDB is installed. When this embedded database is installed, the default audit method will be ODBC Database. OneSpan Authentication Server will automatically configure DSN according to the settings used during installation.

Reporting

When the embedded MariaDB database is installed, OneSpan Authentication Server will automatically be configured to retrieve information from the same ODBC Database used for auditing.

Limitations

No failover support or data replication is included. Recovery time from any machine or data problems may be extensive.

Deployment steps

Install OneSpan Authentication Server using the Basic installation option. This will also install and set up an embedded Apache Tomcat web server, the Administration Web Interface, and an embedded MariaDB database.
