Internet access for manufacturing apps and OS compatibility.

[svisveswaraiya]

Hi,

1) I wanted to know will manufacturing apps work without internet?

2) If the Operating server is 2007 will the validation be successful and  manufacturing apps get installed?

 Please provide an answer for these as we are planning to deploy the manufacturing apps.

 Thanks in advance.

Greetings  @svisveswaraiya,

Manufacturing apps can work without internet if you have your data source on your host computer or you can connect to your data source from the host computer on your network.

Generally KepServerEX is used as a data source. You can install KepServerEX on a seperate server and connect to ThingWorx Platform.

We don't support Windows Server 2007 for installing ThingWorx Platform. Manufacturing Apps is an extension to Thingworx Core Platform. 

It is supported and tested on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Server 2012 R2.

Please refer the System Requirements document for the details of compatibility Matrix.
