In the
Options dialog box, select the
Server/Web tab to access options to configure the built-in web browser and enable or control the operation of Statistica Enterprise Server integration with Statistica.
Statistica Enterprise Server extends the capabilities of the Statistica platform, turning several stand-alone workstations into a powerful, enterprise-wide collaborative-intelligence system. For an overview of Statistica Enterprise Server technology and a description of advantages that it provides, see
Web Enablement - Statistica Enterprise Server.
One of the key features of Statistica Enterprise Server's client-server architecture is that it enables users to utilize server-side resources to run multiple, possibly time-consuming or repetitive statistical analyses (offload tasks to the server), while at the same time freeing the local system for other tasks that require users' immediate attention.
This can be achieved either using a Web browser (thin client) or desktop version of Statistica (thick client, Statistica Enterprise Server client). While the former allows access to Statistica Enterprise Server from a browser, the latter requires Statistica installation on the user’s workstation. Statistica Enterprise Server's tight integration with the Statistica application provides common user experience and workflow for both client and server-side operations, a generally more feature-rich and responsive user interface and all the additional components and tools of desktop Statistica.
