Before You Begin
To maintain uniformity, the following terms have been used in the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio UI and the product documentation:
- TIBCO ActiveSpaces software version 2.x is referred to as Legacy ActiveSpaces.
- TIBCO ActiveSpaces software version 4.6.1 and later are referred to as ActiveSpaces.
For details about the supported versions, see the Readme.txt file available at the TIBCO BusinessEvents® Enterprise Edition Product Documentation page.
Rule Management Server Prerequisite
In addition to Legacy ActiveSpaces as cluster and cache provider, you can also configure TIBCO BusinessEvents Rule Management Server (RMS) with the following combinations:
| Cluster | Cache | Store |
|---|---|---|
| Apache Ignite | Apache Ignite | None/Shared Nothing/RDBMS/Store Providers (TIBCO ActiveSpaces and Cassandra) |
| TIBCO FTL | Apache Ignite | None/Shared Nothing/RDBMS/Store Providers (TIBCO ActiveSpaces and Cassandra) |
| TIBCO FTL | No cache | TIBCO ActiveSpaces |
By default, Apache Ignite is used as the cluster and cache provider.
For more information about configuring these for your RMS project, see TIBCO BusinessEvents Configuration Guide.
