BPC RiskManager is an N-Tier application.  The primary layers are:

* Database Server layer
* Application Server layer
* Client layer


The core application set does not require a web server but certain optional capabilities do.


You will require a web server if you will be:


* Using the browser plugin client component.
* Using the HTTP/HTTPS communication protocol between the client layer and the application server
* Using the BPC SurveyManager / Web Forms engine


While the browser plugin client component can be served by any brand of web server, you will require IIS 5+ if you plan to be:


* Using the HTTP/HTTPS communication protocol between the client layer and the application server
* Using the BPC SurveyManager / Web Forms engine

Both of these capabilities use ISAPI libraries running on an IIS server.   If you will be using the the HTTPS communication protocol, you will also need an SSL certificate installed on the web server.
