eMagiz runtimes can run on local, on-premises servers. Main reason is that some systems are only accessible from within the client's infrastructure. In such scenario's that on-premises server needs to be equipped with a linux based Docker installation.

1. Prerequisites
- Intermediate knowledge of the eMagiz platform
2. Key concepts
This microlearning describes how the eMagiz Deploy agent is installed on the on-premises server where a eMagiz runtime should run on. Please note that the eMagiz Deploy agent requires a valid Docker installation on the on-premises server. The detailed install guide can be found in this microlearning.
3. eMagiz Deploy agent installation
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 under Deploy Architecture. At the runtime connector, there is a right click option called Deploy Agent. That presents either the command or the location where that agent is installed. In case the command is presented it means that this machine is not yet equipped with the eMagiz Deploy agent. The command can be executed inside the Linux command prompt on the on-premises server.
Once the agent is installed, eMagiz can manage the machine to deploy new runtime and or update runtimes as needed. Also the container runtime can be controlled with start, stop, et commands. Please consult this microlearning to inspect the on-premises runtime logs.
4. Key takeaways
- The eMagiz Docker agent needs to be installed to allow runtime to be installed on the on-premises server
