looking for installation architecture suggestions Installing FME flow for the first time. Looking at it from IT perspective, not an FME user myself. Current users are using FME Form on Windows, and I’m upgrading this FME Flow server. We have very low load, but growing and so I’m moving our “operations” from under a user’s desk to our data center. We mange a lot of Windows and Linux systems, but prefer Linux when there’s a choice, and Linux is genuinely fully supported by vendor. Initially I thought it had to run on Windows do to ArcGIS jobs which apparently requires Windows ESRI DLLs. But upon closer read of docs, it appears that a distributed install allows all components on Linux except engine(s) for ArcGIS jobs. While I lean toward Linux, I also favor simplicity and eschew unnecessary complexity, and obviously a distributed install is more complex, but depending on the specific software, more complex doesn’t necessarily mean that much more work. I don’t however need fault-tolerant Any recommendations? Windows single-system? Distrib
