On-premises Resilient platform

If you have a Resilient platform in your environment, the Resilient integration server can be the same system as the one hosting the Resilient platform; however, IBM Resilient recommends that you keep them on separate systems for the following reasons:

• Security. Although all apps from the Community App Exchange are code scanned and tested, it is a security measure to not allow apps access to the command line of the Resilient platform host.
• Performance. Although the Resilient extensions are resource efficient, running them on the Resilient host could have impact on the available resources, especially if your extensions are heavily using in-memory processing.
• Access. The administrator of the Resilient integration server maintains, installs, and configures extensions. This administrator does not necessarily require access to the Resilient platform.
