A Devolutions Server instance is a web application, allowing its services to be accessible over the Internet or an Intranet.
The recommended topology involves using two servers: one for the database and one for the web application. For smaller installations, a single server may be used; however, resources will be shared between both roles, which may impact performance.
Key points to consider:
Ensure that .NET 8.0 is installed on your machine before beginning the installation.
It is strongly recommended to enable SSL encryption to secure communication with the SQL Server instance. Follow Microsoft's guide: Configure SQL Server Database Engine for encrypting connections. We advise completing this step after the initial setup.
For full Active Directory integration, the application pool should use a domain identity, and both servers need to be joined to the domain.

Installing web server prerequisites
After installing the prerequisites, test the IIS installation by navigating to http://localhost. If the IIS welcome screen does not appear, do not proceed. Any issues must be resolved before continuing.
