A typical setup for Commerce Reporting involves three ATG environments:
A merchandising environment running ATG Merchandising. This environment is used for maintaining the versioned site data, which it deploys to the production environment.
A production environment that runs the actual Commerce site. This site logs data about customer activity.
A data loading environment that loads the data logged by the production environment into the Data Warehouse database tables. This Data Warehouse can then be used for running reports.
This section describes how to set up these three environments. For additional information about installing database tables for ATG Commerce, see the Configuring and Populating a Production Database chapter. For more information about setting up reporting, see the ATG Customer Intelligence Installation and Configuration Guide.
