eMagiz 3.1 2 In this microlearning, we will focus on how the installation requirements for on-premises deployments of eMagiz runtimes that are part of the new runtime architecture. The new runtime architecture uses a containerized approach to deploy runtimes.

6 == 1. Prerequisites ==
7
8 * Advanced knowledge of the eMagiz platform
eMagiz 3.1 9 * Good understanding of eMagiz runtimes in general
eMagiz 1.1 10
11 == 2. Key concepts ==
eMagiz 21.1 12 In the new runtime architecture of eMagiz, Docker technology is used to deploy runtimes. eMagiz creates specific runtime images that contain the eMagiz runtime, and can be deployed in dockerized envirionments.
eMagiz 3.1 13
eMagiz 21.1 14 In the below section the specific operating systems and versions are discussed in a sense that the prerequisite installations are described. Once the right installation is done, refer to section 3.5 for the installation of the eMagiz portainer agent that manages the interaction with the eMagiz platform. That agent will download the created docker images that will be deployed in the Docker environment.

74 * Create a VM in HyperV.
75 ** For this, choose Generation 1, the amount of memory you want to assign to ubuntu and thus to the containers. Please consider the overhead for memory as well (such as OS).
eMagiz 19.1 76 ** Configure a virtual switch.
77 ** Add a virtual Hard Disk with proper sizing (e.g. 30 GB)

80 * Install docker as per official ubuntu documentation (See https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository) on the VM
eMagiz 17.1 81
82 === 3.5 Installation agent ===
83
eMagiz 5.1 84 eMagiz needs to install a specific agent in the Docker instance that allows to download runtime images that needs to be installed on the Docker instance. The specific command to run inside the Docker instance is specific for the machine that is configured inside eMagiz Design & Deploy Architectures. It can be found inside the eMagiz iPaaS portal or is available upon request. Once that agent is installed, the image that is generated for every eMagiz release can be downloaded and installed in the Docker instance.

eMagiz 1.1 91
92 == 5. Key takeaways ==
93
eMagiz 5.1 94 * eMagiz uses runtime images to deploy emagiz runtime on dockerized environments. The runtime image holds all the information and components required to run the runtime
95 * eMagiz has a specific agent that manages the download of that image to the on-premises server
96 * The firewall of the on-premises environment should allow outgoing traffic without any restriction. In case that is not desirable, eMagiz can provide the addresses and ports needed to setup the right firewall rules.
