Check and Posting Service (CAPS)

Enhancement to Scale CAPS for High Volume Environments

You can run the Check and Posting Service (CAPS) web application on Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and have the CAPS database reside on an Oracle database. This allows the CAPS to scale to the number of transactions occurring at a single large property (for example, a stadium with dozens of workstations generating thousands of transactions simultaneously during event breaks such as halftime).

To facilitate CAPS configuration at large properties, you can use the CAPS Configurator Tool to:
  • Configure CAPS to use an Oracle database

  • Configure CAPS to run on Microsoft IIS

The Oracle Hospitality Simphony Configuration Guide contains more information on configuring CAPS using both methods.
