I've spent so long working out how to use Azure to setup the Enterprise environment for Blue Prism that only now am I thinking that I don't actually understand what some of the elements are for. I'm sure I understood this at the beginning...
I understand the purpose and need for the SQL database (data tier)
I understand the purpose and need for the appserver (app tier)
It's the client tier that I've got a mental block on.
The architecture guide refers to Runtime Resources and Development Clients, but not really Interactive Clients:
And when I came to the installation of Blue Prism on the VMs, it refers to the Runtime Resources and the Interactive Client, which threw me a bit.
My question is, assuming I have the smallest possible network setup, which is the VM that will be doing the actual work i.e. which one will the automation be whizzing around doing processes on with no human interaction? Is it the runtime resource?
Is the Interactive Client just for externally 'spying' on the runtime resource to see how it's getting on?
And then the dev client is for creating new processes effectively offline?
I think I'm confused because the intention is that there would be a big team of people all of whom have different responsibilities and tasks to perform, but I'm just a one-man band at the moment.
