deployment

Azure Web Role (1 role, multiple load balanced instances, at least 2 for SLA)

Azure Worker Roles

(4 roles, multiple instances, at least 2 per role for SLA)

TotalAgility “Dev” Azure Cloud Service - hosts multiple tenants for “Dev”

deployment

Azure Web Role (1 role, multiple load balanced instances, at least 2 for SLA)

Azure Worker Roles

(4 roles, multiple instances, at least 2 per role for SLA)

Process/Form Designer, Forms Workspace, Transformation Designer

KSMS Server - public VM hosted by customers in Azure or

other web hosting provider

SQL Azure Tenant Databases

(one database per Tenant, with

separate Live, Dev and Reporting

schemas)

SQL Azure Master Tenants Database

(stores Tenant configuration data, connection strings)

Table Storage (stores diagnostic and

Reporting data)

Blob Storage (stores Document data)

Queue Storage (stores Reporting data)

TotalAgility Cloud Architecture

TotalAgility Cloud Service – hosts multiple tenants

Web Role (multiple load balanced instances, at

least 2 for SLA)

Multi Tenant IIS Website

Core Worker Role (multiple instances, at least 2 for SLA)

- performs automatic activities, monitoring, job archiving/scheduling

for each tenant

Reporting Worker Role (multiple instances, at least 2 for

SLA) - transforms reporting data from Reporting Staging DB schema to Main DB schema for each tenant

Cache Role (multiple instances, at least 2

for SLA) - caches tenant data for server

settings, business calendar

Transformation Server Worker Role

(multiple instances, at least 2 for SLA) - performs document separation, classification, extraction, image

processing for each tenant

Tenant databases and Master Tenant database

Azure Storage (Table, Queue, Blob)

Tenant Management IIS Website

Page 26: Transform 2014: Introducing Kofax TotalAgility® Cloud

TotalAgility Cloud Architecture

2 Azure Cloud Services – “Live” and “Dev”

Each cloud service has 5 Azure roles (1 Web role, 4 Worker roles)

Each role has 2 VM instances for Azure SLA of 99.95% up-time; if a VM goes down, another is automatically spun up

Total VM instances = (5 * 2) * 2 = 20

Customers given two URLs, one for Live and one for Dev

Import/export data between the deployments using TotalAgility Designer

SQL Azure

1 tenant database per tenant (max size 150GB); stores processes, jobs, activities, forms, documents, folders, reporting data.

Contains 4 DB schemas: Main Live, Main Dev, Reporting Staging Live, Reporting Staging Dev

1 master tenant database: stores tenant config data and connection strings

Data automatically replicated 3 times

Page 27: Transform 2014: Introducing Kofax TotalAgility® Cloud

TotalAgility Cloud Architecture

Azure Storage

Table storage – stores diagnostic data for each tenant and in-transit reporting data

Queue storage – stores reporting data to be processed

Blob storage – stores runtime document binary data; each tenant uses separate container

Data automatically replicated 3 times

Currently using 1 storage account for all tenants; maximum storage account size 200TB; future requirement to allow multiple storage accounts to be configured

Transformation Designer

Installed locally on client machine and configured to point to TotalAgility Azure Tenant URL

Kofax Search and Matching Server (KSMS)

Connect to on-premise KSMS server, or host KSMS server and make it publicly available to the internet
