1 Installing

Pre-requirements

• Visual Studio 2015/Visual Studio Community;
• Admin access to an instance of AX 2012 to setup the AIF Inbound ports;
• Admin access to the VM running the AOS to open the firewall ports (if required);
• Azure subscription for cloud deployment (if required).

Deployment

The deployment can be done on a local web server (IIS/IIS Express) or on cloud (Azure web application). Others solutions (e.g. Apache, AWS) are technically possible but not tested.

Note: If you deploy on Azure you can point your API to any AOS running on a VM or access your on-premises AOS via VPN or enabling the Hybrid Connection between your web application and the AOS server. More instructions here:

• Access on-premises resources using hybrid connections in Azure App Service
• Create a resource manager VNet with a Site-to-Site VPN connection using the Azure Portal
