How to Install and Configure a SAP ASE Mart

In the previous versions, erwin Data Modeler connected to the Mart database through the database client software. Now, the application connects to the Mart database through a web server. The database client software is no longer required.

The Mart comprises the following components:

Database

Stores the user data for the Workgroup Edition. You can use a SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) 15.0 through 15.7 and SAP ASE 16, or the certified version, SAP ASE 16 SP02 database for the Mart database. You must use a new database and not an existing database that was created for an older version of the data modeling tool.

Applications

Includes a web-based component named erwin Mart Administrator that helps you manage the Mart through a web console.

Web server

Hosts erwin Mart Administrator. You can use a web server of your choice. If you have not installed a web server, use the erwin Mart Server option and install Tomcat.

If you are using the Workgroup Edition, you must install and configure erwin Mart Administrator.
