21. Click on Apply to complete the MDS configuration. This completes the configuration
and presents a popup indicating that the MDS configuration is complete.
22. On the Configuration Complete screen, choose the Launch Web application in
browser option and click OK to open the MDS Getting Started page in the browser.
This completes the configuration of the Master Data Services databases and web
configuration that will enable you to feature the MDS solution on an existing data platform.
How it works...
The Master Data Services setup will host the MDS web application and installs relevant
MDS folders and files at the location and assigns permission to the objects. The setup will
register MDS assemblies in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). The MDS snap-in for Windows
PowerShell is registered and installs the MDS configuration manager. A new windows group
called
MDS_ServiceAccount
is created to contain the MDS service accounts for application
pools. The MDS installation path creates a folder
MDSTempDir
where temporary compilation
files are compiled for the MDM web application, and permissions are assigned for the
MDS_
ServiceAccount
group.
The web application configuration section follows a different workflow method, by including
an option to Create Site followed by specifying settings for the new site and the MDS web
application configured as the root web application in the site. This process will not allow
you to configure the MDS web application under any virtual paths or specify an alias for the
application. The Create New Application process enables you to select a website to create an
MDS application in and the Create Application screen allows you to specify settings for the
new application. The MDS application will be configured as an application in the selected site
at the virtual path and at a specified alias.
Designing and deploying framework to use
Master Data Services
The Master Data Services (MDS) helps to solve the problem of storing, integrating, and
enforcing processes. This helps to decide which data we want to manage, build a model and
rules for, load data and establish workflows and notifications. In this recipe, we will go through
the process of designing and deploying a framework to use MDS effectively, that includes
deploying a package of a model to a target MDS environment.
Getting ready
The prerequisites for this recipe are as follows:
F
Ensure that the account used to perform the procedure has permission to access the
System Administration functional area in the target MDS environment
