1. Install the product with the .bin or .exe installer of the product; run the installer which gives you an intuitive wizard to install the Fiorano setup as per your needs.

   Tip
   You can also refer to the Installing Fiorano Platform documentation which takes you through the steps of installing Fiorano Platform.

   Note
   Further in this document, "$FIORANO_HOME" refers to the Fiorano Setup installation directory.

2. Install a Cassandra Database Server and PostgreSQL server.
   
   

   1. Cassandra Database is an open source database that provides unmatched linear scalability and high availability with proven fault tolerance and is used to store detailsthatneedstobelooked details that needs to be looked up on the fly.

      Tip

      Download Cassandra Version 2.0.9 from the link http://cassandradownloads.apachedatastax.orgcom/download/community and please refer to the link http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted for directions directions provided here to install Cassandra. Note Fiorano API supports 2.x versions of Cassandra. After installing Cassandra, to enable the DB to be accessed from other machines, open the cassandra.yaml file present in the conf folder of Cassandra, and set the rpc_address property to the IP address of the system where Cassandra DB is running.

   2. Fiorano uses PostgreSQL for its analytics data store. To configure PostgreSQL for analytics, perform the following actions:
      1. Install PostgreSQL on the machine where you want your Analytics Database to be.
      2. Create your desired username, set the desired password and create the database that you want Fiorano to use for the purpose.
      3. Download the PostgreSQL JDBC driver for your JVM and keep it ready for the later steps.
      4. Once Fiorano is installed, some changes need to be done in the Fiorano setup for the Analytics to connect to the PostgreSQL. To do this, open the apidb.cfg file present at $FIORANO_HOME/esb/server/profiles/server1/AMS/conf and make the following changes in the document:
         
         1. Under section 2, change the <ip-address>, <port> and <database> variables to the actual desired settings of the above installed PostgreSQL setup.
         2. Under section 3 and section 4 of this document, provide the username and password credentials needed to connect to the installed database.
         3. Under section 6 and 7, provide the reconnect settings of your choice.
         4. Go to $FIORANO_HOME/esb/server/bin/server.conf and under the <java.classpath>segment,add the path to the above downloaded JDBCdriver,so that the driver gets added to the classpath of the JVM.
