Storage:

Documents in Lygos such as Screenspaces, Layouts, Data Sources, Maps, Visualizations, Presentations or Signages composed of 1-3 to Parts: 1 Mandatory, 2 Conditional Parts.

  • Configuration (All Documents): Configuration is a document configuration, such as settings and styles, or database connection settings, depending on document type.
  • Data (Data based Documents): Data incoming from RESTAPI or Databases.
  • Files (File based Documents): Media Files or File based Data sources such as Spreadsheet, GeoData, GraphData, TreeData and FileWatch contains files.
  • On Clients Authenticated Clients with Necessary Permissions:
    • Configuration: Stored in Memory (Temporary)
    • Files: Stored in Hard disk (Temporary)
    • Data: Stored in Memory (Temporary)
    • When you add or change document from a client, this changes are sent to server, not stored on the client. it is configuration, data and files are stored in server than shared with authenticated clients back.
  • On Server
    • Files: Files from Document other users/clients created are stored in Harddisk
    • Configuration: Configurations are Stored Encrypted in Harddisk
    • Data: Data is Stored Encrypted in Harddisk
    • Cloud Login Credentials are stored Encrypted in Harddisk
  • Lygos.io Cloud
    • No Configuration, Data or Files are required to be shared with Lygos Cloud for a Server to operate. This is part of our On Premise solution requirements.
    • However Optionally users can backup Server Database on Lygos Cloud. Server Database contains configuration of all documents. It does not store data or files. It is encrypted by user database key before being sent to Lygos Cloud. Lygos does not know this key and only user has it, so lygos cannot decrypt the server backup.
    • Lygos does not share this backup at any condition with anyone except the user created it.

Communication:

  • Client-Server:
    • Config & Data: Secure and Encrypted.
    • Files: Authenticated Communication, however due to performance issues files are not encrypted during transfer.
  • Server-Cloud:
    • Secure & Encrypted
