Database configuration options

You can use different configurations for your database instances when you install the InForm software. You can choose:

SameDB —The InForm database and the InForm reporting database are installed on a single database instance.
Note: Oracle 12c database is supported only in a SameDB environment.
DiffDB —The InForm database and the InForm reporting database are installed on separate database instances.
Note: Automated deployments from the Central Designer application are not supported for environments that have the InForm database and the InForm reporting database installed on separate instances.
Distributed deployment —The database instances are configured to distribute tablespaces across multiple database servers. For more information, see Multiple study tablespaces.
