IBM InfoSphere Streams Version 4.1.0

Installing Streams Studio for remote development

Use this procedure to install Streams Studio Version 4.1 on a local Linux or Microsoft Windows system.

Streams Studio uses the client-server architecture to provide a seamless remote development environment. To use remote development, you install Streams Studio on a local Linux or Windows system that acts as a client and install InfoSphere® Streams on a remote Linux system that acts as a server. After you establish a connection with the remote Linux system, you can use Streams Studio on your local system to develop streams processing applications remotely.

The InfoSphere Streams runtime environment, Streams Processing Language (SPL) compiler, and SPL toolkits are located on the remote Linux system. Streams Studio uses Remote System Explorer (RSE) to provide connectivity to the remote Linux system for building streams processing applications. RSE is included in the Streams Studio installation.
