Configure Presto Connections to SharePoint
If you have the Presto Add-On for SharePoint, you must configure connections in Presto from the Presto Server to SharePoint. You must also configure connections in SharePoint from SharePoint to the Presto Server.
This configuration determines:
How many
Presto Add-On for SharePoint licenses are needed.
The
Presto Add-On for SharePoint license defines a maximum number of HTTP domains (domain-name/port combinations) for
SharePoint. You can define any number of connections to the farm as a whole or to specific site collections within a given domain. See
Connection Patterns Between
Presto Servers
and
SharePoint for more information and examples of how connections affect license usage.
What mashups and apps are visible in
SharePoint site collections to be added to Web Part pages in those sites.
This is determined by the connections you define in SharePoint to Presto Servers. Each connection must also have a valid license, but multiple connections can share a license based on the domains and ports used for your site collections and farms.
What
SharePoint site collections and Lists are visible in
Presto to be registered as mashable information sources or used as information sources in mashups.
This is determined by the connections you define in Presto from the Presto Server to SharePoint farms and site collections. Users can also register SharePoint lists in SharePoint as mashables in Presto, so this only affects users in Presto.
