Gateway Servers

Gateways are optional data-routing servers, operating between the CMS and client systems. Each gateway can serve multiple client systems and is connected to a single parent server. The Event Import utility is also hosted on a gateway. The parent is either the CMS or another gateway. This hierarchical, distributed deployment provides resilience and network load balancing.

Note: Gateways are optional. You can connect any client system directly to the CMS if preferred.
