NetIQ Access Manager comes with two deployment options:

  • Deploying individual components (Identity Server, Access Gateway, Analytics Server and Administration Console). Each component can be installed and managed on separate servers. Access Manager 4.4 SP1 onwards, Administration Console, Identity Server, and Access Gateway can also be deployed as services on Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 and Microsoft Azure.

  • Deploying all components as an appliance. Access Manager Appliance is a soft appliance based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. It bundles pre-configured Identity Server, Access Gateway, and Administration Console in one server. Analytics Server can be installed and managed on a separate server.
