EdgeServerInstall

Quick Start with Apache Tomcat

Edge Server consists of a single .war file called FusionEdgeServer.war.

1. Copy FusionEdgeServer.war into the directory: <TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps
2. Start the Tomcat Server
3. Check the Tomcat <TOMCAT_HOME>/logs to ensure there are no errors in the log files

During the Tomcat start-up process, the war file will be unpacked into a directory of the same name, for example:

<TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps/FusionEdgeServer

On successful launch the Fusion Edge Server product information service can be queried from the following URL:

http://[server]:[port]/FusionEdgeServer/ws/fusion/info/product

The values for server and port must be replaced with the IP address and port number that the web application server is running on. For example, if the web browser is running on the same machine as the web application server and the Apache Tomcat has not had its default port settings modified, then the following address can be used:

http://localhost:8080/FusionEdgeServer

The Fusion Edge Server is now deployed and running in a web container, the URL will result in an empty (white page) - remeber the purpose of the FusionEdgeServer is to host a READ ONLY REST API to your SDMX Structural Metadata, Data, and Reference Metadata. The Fusion Edge server has no User Interface, so the white empty page is a good thing. The REST API of the Fusion Edge Server can be used to browse your content, which should be currently empty.
