==Introduction==
[[File:IL_Platform_Architecture.png|thumb|220px|{{UBIK}} Platform Architecture]]
A complete {{UBIK}} System consists of a few parts that play together but have different purposes. Not every component (or access to it) is needed for each and every scenario and sometimes these components are spread over various servers and devices. The only part that is always necessary and therefore not listed in this table is the {{UBIK}} Database. The following table should provide an overview which part of {{UBIK}} has to be installed and accessible for which use case:

== First Steps ==
Follow these four steps to create an {{UBIK}} application from scratch:
# [[Getting_Started#Installation|Install and configure]] according components required for the existing use case (see table above)
# [[Entity Data Model|Build up data model]] and publish tables with data
# Configure the [[ACM|Application Context Management]]
# '''Enjoy {{UBIK}}!'''
== Installation ==
=== {{UBIK}} Studio ===
[[File:UI_Studio.png|thumb|220px|{{UBIK}} Studio]]{{UBIK}} Studio can be installed and used on a local client as well as via a Remote Desktop Connection (RDP). All the structural and content data are stored in the {{UBIK}} database managed by a Microsof SQL server. A Microsoft Internet-Information-Server (IIS) serves as platform to publish this data to the mobile device. A necessary but obvious condition is of course, that all the software packages ({{UBIK}} Studio, Microsoft SQL and IIS) can communicate between each other. :''See[[HowTo: Install_UBIK_Studio|How to install {{UBIK}} Studio]] for help on installation issues.'':''See [[Installation_UBIK_StudioUBIK_Studio_Basics#Options|{{UBIK}} Studio Basics]] for further details on configuration.'' === {{UBIK}} Enterprise Service ===The {{UBIK}} Enterprise Service is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_service Windows service] that is meant to automate {{UBIK}} interface components or interface workflows. It typically runs on a server and is triggered by changes in an arbitrary amount of folders in the file system (like new or modified files). :''See [[HowTo:Install_UBIK_Enterprise_Service|How to install {{UBIK}} Enterprise Service]] for help on installation issues.'':''See [[Enterprise_Service|{{UBIK}} Enterprise Service]] for further details about configuration.'' === {{UBIK}} Web Service ===The {{UBIK}} web services publish data from the {{UBIK}} database to mobile devices (i.e. mobile phone, tablet etc.). :''See [[HowTo:Install_UBIK_Web_Service|How to install {{UBIK}} Web Service]] for help on installation issues.'':''See [[:Category:Web_Service|Web Service]] for further details about configuration.'' === {{UBIK}} Database (SQL) ===:''See [[HowTo:Install_UBIK_Database|Set up {{UBIK}} StudioDatabase]]for help on configuration issues.'' === {{UBIK}} WinX Client ===:''See [[HowTo:Install_UBIK_WinX_Client]] for help on installation.'' [[Category:UBIK|Getting Started]] == Entity Data Model ==Get to know about the relational model used in {{UBIK}} beginning from a rather figurative and abstract point of view.:''See: [[Entity Data Model]]'' === Built-in Objects ===Based on the {{UBIK}} meta model a set of Metaclasses and Metaproperties have been already implemented in advance. These objects serve as root nodes for more user specific Metaclasses or containers for a range of functionality. New customer specific meta objects are derivatives of those system objects, hence implicitly inherit a set of Metaproperties and features. The most important system objects are:* [[:Category:Metaclasses|Metaclasses]]* [[MetaProperty|MetaProperties]]* [[:Category:Classifications|Classifications]]* [[:Category:Workflow|Workflows]]* [[:Category:Relations|Relations]]* [[:Category:References|References]]

== Create a Mobile Event Management ==Provide a step-by-step guide how to create metaclasses, assign metaproperties and publish data on the mobile device including creation of documents.This first example should be based on the event example from the internal {{[[Category:UBIK}} training (Dec, 2012).|Getting Started]]
