KIE Install Guide

1. There are two different approaches to installing KIE for OpenCDS:
   1. You can download an Installation of KIE in Docker which is already configured and ready to use.
      1. Useful for smaller installations, or initial testing and evaluation of OpenCDS
   2. You can follow the installation instructions from KIE, and configure all the OpenCDS accessories by hand.
      1. Requires more configuration of web services and associated databases
         
         
2. For the Docker approach you will need to do the following:
   1. Download and install the OpenCDS KIE Docker file
   2. Download and install the OpenCDS Apelon Support KIE Docker file
      1. required if you are going to use standard OpenCDS Concept codes, and has imbedded support for creating drop-down lists for these terminologies within rules in KIE
      2. required if you are going to demo any of the shared rules provided by OpenCDS
         
         
3. For the manual installation approach you will need to do the following:
   1. Download and install a Java app server, such as Tomcat or JBoss
   2. Download and install KIE into that server
   3. Optionally install the OpenCDS Apelon Support Service into the same or a different app server
      
      1. This is required if you are going to use standard OpenCDS Concept codes, and has imbedded support for creating drop-down lists for these terminologies within rules in KIE.
      2. This is not required if you are going to manage your vocabularies in another way.
