3 wwwignifycom Tel (888) IGNIFY5 Fax (408) Ignify ecommerce Deployment Scenarios Ignify ecommerce can be deployed in different scenarios based on your requirements 1 Web Farm Deployment (Recommended configuration) Ignify ecommerce Store runs on a load balanced web farm in DMZ Ignify ecommerce Manager and Services Web Site can run on the same web farm or a separate web farm within the intranet SQL Server can run in an active passive cluster with external storage This is the recommended configuration for Ignify ecommerce for security as well as scalability This scenario requires multiple instances of SQL Reporting Servers on all farm servers in DMZ and also on Ignify ecommerce Manager Server (if this is a separate web server or web farm) Figure 14 Web Farm ecommerce deployment

4 wwwignifycom Tel (888) IGNIFY5 Fax (408) Two Server Deployment Ignify ecommerce Server hosting all web sites and SQL Reporting Server on one server in DMZ and Ignify ecommerce Database Server hosting SQL database on a second server behind the firewall While this deployment has a higher level of security it does not provide any redundancy or load balancing Figure 12 Two Server Deployment ecommerce deployment

5 wwwignifycom Tel (888) IGNIFY5 Fax (408) Separate Store Manager Deployment (aka Three Server Deployment) Ignify ecommerce Store Server in DMZ, Ignify ecommerce Manager & Services in intranet on Ignify ecommerce Manager Server Ignify ecommerce Database Server hosting SQL Server 2005 in intranet This scenario requires two instances of SQL 2005 Reporting Servers one in DMZ and one in your intranet Figure 13 Separate Store Manager / Three server ecommerce deployment

6 wwwignifycom Tel (888) IGNIFY5 Fax (408) Security and Network configuration Each of the above scenarios requires specific security and network configuration Details for the same are provided below Scenario Network Configuration Firewall Configuration Web Farm Deployment Store Domain should be mapped to a single load balanced IP address Two Server Deployment Multiple Servers hosting front store should be configured as a load balanced cluster Manager and Services should be mapped to a single IP address of the server hosting these sites in intranet zone Store, Manager and Services domain should be mapped to a single IP address of the Application Server Web Farm hosting Store would be in DMZ Application Server hosting Manager and Services would be in Intranet Database would be in intranet DMZ from intranet to allow SQL Traffic (Port usually) from store application server(s) to the database server internet from DMZ to allow HTTP (port 80), HTTPS (port 443) and SMTP (port 25) traffic SMTP should be secured by allowing only the local server to send s Application Server would be in DMZ while Database server would be in intranet DMZ from intranet to allow SQL Traffic (Port usually) from application server to the database server internet from DMZ to allow HTTP (port 80), HTTPS (port 443) and SMTP (port 25) traffic SMTP should be secured by allowing only the local server to send s Two Server with Separate Store Domain should be First Application Server hosting

7 wwwignifycom Tel (888) IGNIFY5 Fax (408) Scenario Network Configuration Firewall Configuration Manager Panel Deployment (aka Three Server deployment) mapped to single IP address of the server hosting the store in DMZ zone Manager and Services should be mapped to a single IP address of the server hosting these sites in intranet zone store would be in DMZ Second Application Server hosting Manager and Services would be in Intranet Database would be in intranet DMZ from intranet to allow SQL Traffic (Port usually) from store application server to the database server internet from DMZ to allow HTTP (port 80), HTTPS (port 443) and SMTP (port 25) traffic SMTP should be secured by allowing only the local server to send s
