Installation Options

Before implementing IBM® Controller, decide how you will install and configure it to provide the best possible performance. The installation and configuration choices that produce the best performance depend on your requirements, resources, and preferences.

When you assess your installation options for IBM Controller, you must consider whether you are installing the product for the first time or upgrading. For information, see Upgrading IBM Controller.

If your environment includes other IBM Cognos® products, you must consider how Controller fits into that environment.
