ESP Studio lets you run and test all aspects of a project.
During development, you can use ESP Studio to run any compiled project against a local or remote server, view data flowing through the streams and windows defined in the project, execute queries, and use debugging tools. Your project configuration and licensing determine the type of server connections you can use when running projects. Some adapters also have special licensing requirements.
In ESP Studio you can connect immediately to a local cluster to run projects, using default security established for ESP Studio during installation. A cluster consists of a group of server nodes, which are processes that run on hosts. A cluster can have a single node or multiple nodes.
In a production environment, you typically run projects on a remote server. Administrators monitor and manage ESP Server nodes, clusters, and projects using Sybase Control Center, a Web-based administrative tool for production deployments, and using the command-line utilities and procedures discussed in the Administrators Guide.
