Getting started
New TIBCO Spotfire® administrators can begin by learning how a Spotfire® implementation is put together and how it works, or go directly to the basic installation. For experienced Spotfire administrators, the Release Notes describe new features and other changes.
Note: Any updates to this documentation will be available on
https://docs.tibco.com. To get the latest version of this documentation, click the help button on the
TIBCO Spotfire® Server start page (if your implementation allows access to the internet), or go to
https://docs.tibco.com/products/tibco-spotfire-server.
Experienced Spotfire administrators:
- If you are updating from Spotfire version 7.0 or earlier, you may want to begin with Introduction to the Spotfire environment.
- To get started, see Upgrading Spotfire.
- For general information on Spotfire® Server, see Spotfire Server introduction.
- For a description of the Spotfire environment, see Introduction to the Spotfire environment.
- The basic installation takes you through the required steps for a simple configuration of
Spotfire Server: the server on one computer, the
TIBCO Spotfire® Analyst client on another, the node manager installed, and the
TIBCO Spotfire® Web Player and
TIBCO Spotfire® Automation Services (if purchased) available on all network computers, user authentication through the
Spotfire database.
Note: You can also use the basic installation process to complete the initial installation for a more complex implementation. In most cases it is recommended that you have a working basic installation before you add additional servers, load balancers, authentication methods, and so on.
To begin installation, see Basic installation process for Spotfire.
