Topology

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.
