Split components

Split components are used for custom deployments: backend on one host, connector on another, external Elastic, or corporate supervisors.

Common components

  • spot-server: UI/API and operational configuration.
  • spot-agent-sap: SAP extractor.
  • spot-license-blackbox: local validator required before backend and connector.
  • spotctl: administration and diagnostic utility.
  • RFC SDK: SAP libraries required by the connector.
  • External or separately managed Elastic.

When to Choose It

  • You need custom directories defined by internal policy.
  • Basis, Linux, and observability responsibilities are separated.
  • Elastic is already standardized.
  • Startup is integrated into an existing supervisor.

Checklist

  1. Define configuration, data, and log paths.
  2. Define the execution user for each process.
  3. Export RFC SDK variables.
  4. Install the validator and activate or install the license.
  5. Configure the Elastic destination.
  6. Configure SAP connections.
  7. Start backend and connector.
  8. Check health, logs, and ingestion.
