The CCS has the following components:
The primary CCS server runs all the components necessary for external applications to use the CCS.
If a document has been previously classified by the CCS, the CCS server retrieves that classification from the classification cache and returns the classification to the external application.
If a document has not been previously classified, the CCS server passes the document to the policy engine. If the policy engine confirms that the document matches a predefined classification, the CCS server returns that classification to external application.
(Optional) Secondary CCS servers provide additional processing capacity to maximize CCS performance. Secondary CCS servers only host the CCS web service, a policy engine, and a CA DataMinder database.
The CCS Web Service Interface is a SOAP-based web service API whose operations are defined in its WSDL file. This API enables external applications to query the available document classifications and request a classification for specific documents.
(Optional) This cache is hosted in CA Directory and contains the results of previous policy analysis. Specifically, it contains classifications for individual documents previously passed to the CCS.
A classification cache is optional. However, if you do not deploy a classification cache, CCS performance will be slower if external applications repeatedly pass the same documents to the CCS for classification. This is because every classification request is passed to a policy engine for processing even if the document has not changed since the previous classification request.
The CCS preclassification agent is based on CA DataMinder File Scanning Agent technology. The preclassification agent scans and classifies documents offline and stores the resulting classifications in the Classification Cache.
Preclassifying documents avoids the need to retrieve and analyze document content in real time, so minimizing disruption to the user. For example, you can preclassify SharePoint documents so that authorized users can open these documents with minimal delay.
The CCS Policy Editor is a web-based console that you use to customize the predefined document classifications.
A shortcut to the CCS Policy Editor is added to the desktop when you install the primary CCS server.
