Installing the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics

The IBM MobileFirst™ Platform Operational Analytics is delivered as two separate WAR files. For convenience in deploying on WebSphere® Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Liberty, the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics is also delivered as an EAR file that contains the two WAR files.

Note: Do not install more than one instance of IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics on a single host machine. For more information about managing your cluster, see the Elasticsearch documentation.

When you develop within MobileFirst Studio, the WAR files that contain the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operational Analytics are automatically deployed. The MobileFirst Server forwards data to the MobileFirst tools with no additional required configurations.

The analytics WAR and EAR files are included with the MobileFirst Server installation. For more information, see Distribution structure of MobileFirst Server.

The following sections describe the required steps for successfully deploying the WAR file to the application server.

When you deploy the WAR file, the MobileFirst Analytics Console is available at:
http://<hostname>:<port>/analytics/console
Example:
http://localhost:9080/analytics/console
