Installing

This section includes information on how to install the pieces that make up the Jive platform.

You can use the following instructions to prepare for and complete an on-premise Jive installation. Jive production installations require multiple servers, a database, and expert knowledge of your enterprise systems; for details, refer to System requirements. Note that these instructions are a template and your requirements will be specific to your community. You should also have a plan to back up your installation, as described in Backup and storage considerations.

Note: If you want to do a quick install for evaluation or development purposes, see Quick installation for Jive evaluation.

If you are installing any of Jive's add-ons, such as Jive for Outlook or Jive Daily Hosted, check the documentation for their separate system and installation requirements at https://docs.jivesoftware.com/.
