Application Services
Application services represent server-based functionality. After you complete the installation, you create application services based on the license key generated for your organization.
When you create an application service, you designate a node to run the service process. The service process is the run-time representation of a service running on a node. The service type determines how many service processes can run at a time.
If you have the high availability option, you can run an application service on multiple nodes. If you do not have the high availability option, configure each application service to run on one node.
Some application services require databases to store information processed by the application service. When you plan the Informatica domain, you also need to plan the databases required by each application service.
For more information about application services, see the Informatica Application Service Guide.
