Deploying to a hybrid cloud environment
To use your cloud portal in hybrid mode, you can either add Decision Server as a target server in the
Decision Center Business console or
you can download and deploy a decision service to a Decision Server that is outside the cloud
environment by using the Rule Execution Server
REST API or the Rule Execution Server
console.
Before you begin
To work in a hybrid cloud environment, the following prerequisites apply:
- Access to a source cloud environment where a decision service (RuleApp and its XOM) is deployed to a Rule Execution Server. The RuleApp must be linked to the XOM, and both must be working properly in the cloud portal. You need credentials and the URL of the Rule Execution Server.
- Access to a target environment, for example:
- On-premises installation of IBM® Operational Decision Manager Decision Server
- Another cloud environment
- Administration credentials and the URL of the target Rule Execution Server.
Important: The target Decision Server must be compatible with the
source cloud components for them to work together correctly. Refer to this article IBM Operational Decision Manager on Cloud Compatibility
