Engine tier
The engine tier consists of the logical group of engine components (the IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server engine components, service agents, and so on) and the computer where those components are installed.
Several product modules require the engine tier for certain operations. You install the engine tier components as part of the installation process for these product modules. The following product modules require the engine tier:
