System requirements

IBM InfoSphere Metadata Workbench must be installed on the domain layer of IBM InfoSphere Information Server. The domain layer contains WebSphere Application Server and the IBM InfoSphere Information Server services. You do not need to install any IBM InfoSphere Metadata Workbench or IBM InfoSphere Information Server components on the IBM InfoSphere Metadata Workbench client machine. The IBM InfoSphere Metadata Workbench uses Microsoft Internet Explorer as the client. These are the minimum operating requirements. Evaluate and adjust the configuration based on your unique environment.
