Understanding Tiers and Components Of IBM Infosphere Information Server 8.5


A Tier is a logical group of components within InfoSphere Information Server and the computers on which those components are installed.
 
The tiers provide services, job execution, and metadata and other data storage for your product modules.
 

Client: The client programs and consoles that are used for development and administration and the computers where they are installed.

Engine  :  The logical group of components (the InfoSphere Information Server engine components, service agents, and so on) and the computer where those components are installed. The engine runs jobs and other tasks for product modules

Services: Application server, common services, and product services for the suite and product modules and the computer where those components are installed. The services tier provides common services (such as metadata and logging) and services that are specific to certain product modules

Metadata Repository:  The metadata repository and, if installed, the IBM InfoSphere Information Analyzer analysis database and the computer where these components are installed. The metadata repository database contains the shared metadata, data, and configuration information for InfoSphere
