The SmartPlant Foundation authoring environment can be configured to have:

  • The data warehouse separate from an authoring database.

  • Both authoring and the data warehouse combined in one database.

The SmartPlant Foundation security model is a flexible mechanism to control role-based user access to the authoring database and data warehouse. Domains and roles control who can access data and what they can do with it. For example, in an authoring environment, a user must have access to the instrumentation domain in authoring to create or edit instruments using SmartPlant Foundation. To learn more about domains, roles, and users, see Security Model.
