2.2.1 Deployment View
The TBAML architecture from the perspective of its deployment illustrates deployment
of the major subsystems across servers. Additionally, the deployment view shows the
primary communications links and protocols between the processing nodes.

The complex interactions between the components of the Alert & Case Management tiers
becomes apparent in the deployment view. The Alert & Case Management tiers require
the following:
- Web browser
- Web server
- Web application server
Alert & Case Management tiers use OFSAAI for handling both authentication and authorization. The Alert & Case Management subsystem also supports the use of an External Authentication Management (EAM) tool to perform user authentication at the web server, if a customer requires it.
TBAML components can operate when deployed on a single computer or when distributed across multiple computers. In addition to being horizontally scalable, TBAML is vertically scalable in that replication of each of the components can occur across multiple servers.
