This deployment option guarantees optimal POS uptime, as it only relies on local resources. This setup is the most complex and the heaviest in terms of maintenance, as you must install all components on every POS. You are also responsible for keeping all databases up to date on the newest version.
Store environment
- POS runs: SQL database, Service Tier, Data Director, and BC Client.
- POSs are resilient and do not need a network to operate.
- Store backoffice users will connect to HQ with a modern Web client.
Dataflow
- Data Director runs on the Hybrid Components Server and pulls master data from HQ into the POS Master Database and then replicates updates to POS.
- Sales Transactions are pushed from POS’S to HQ after each sale.
- Web services used for online requirements (inventory lookup, voucher validation, and so on).
