Question

Does the Integration Platform require a BarTender System Database?

Applicable to 

BarTender 2019 and later

the Integration Platform

Answer

In these versions, in addition to need a System Database when using cloud storage options, a System Database is also required when remotely deploying an integration. The BarTender System Database stores the different Servers information into which an integration could be deployed. The System Database is only required on the computer where the integration is being created and not in the target server (computer where it is going to be deployed).

As such, it is not mandatory for both servers (integration creation and deployment) to use the same BarTender System database.
