The initial setup of UBIK® and its components requires some extensive but straight forward steps. This guide gives an overview about the dependencies of the different components, whereas more detailed installation instructions can be found in separate linked articles, respectively.

Each section covers the components required for the use case named in the section title.

Setup for data model administration

Component Required Install instructions
UBIK® Database Always Install UBIK Database
UBIK® Studio Always Install UBIK Studio

Session Management Type

Using the USAM mode is sufficient for administrate the data model and to work with UBIK® Studio only. See [[HowTo:Configure_Single_Local_Application_Authentication|this guide for instructions how to set up this authentication mode.

Setup for working mobile

Component Mandatory Optional for Install instructions
UBIK® Database Always Install UBIK Database
UBIK® Studio Always Install UBIK Studio
UBIK® Client Always Install UBIK Database
Web Service Always Example [[1]]

Session Management Type

For being able to use mobile clients it is mandatory to use Local Application Service as authentication mode. See [[HowTo:Configure_LAS_Authentication|this guide for instructions how to set up this authentication mode.

Setup for interfacing 3rd party systems

UBIK Database

    • [Create empty SQL DB + execute SQL script]
  • UBIK Studio
  • .NET Framework 4.0

• Use cases o UBIK Studio only: SL o Working with client (mobile, web): LAS + USAM

• Web service o Content  Configuration: endpoints, bindings vom Push o USAM o Optional: Push

      • Configuration: endpoints, bindings


All content and configuration data of UBIK® is managed in a Microsoft SQL database (2008 R2 or newer). Once the SQL server engines is installed successfully, an administrator can set up a new UBIK® database simple using the available release database.
