The EUCARIS system is being updated via Configuration Updates and System Updates. Both Configuration- and System Updates are received using the Configuration Tool via the secure sTESTA channel and all files are checked for viruses and signed by EUCARIS Operations. Configuration Updates and System Updates both serve separate goals, namely:
Configuration Updates
- Updates the Configuration of EUCARIS (available countries, available services, configured service endpoints, authorisations, etc),
- Do not change or update the system software,
- Are lightweigth and do not need a comprehensive change process.
More information regarding Configuration Updates can be found here: Configuration Updates
System Updates:
- Updates the system files of EUCARIS (executables, dynamic link libraries, etc),
- Changes the system software by adding features or fixing issues,
- Possibly changes the datamodel and if so requires intervention of a DBA,
- Probably needs a change process.
