Purpose

Network connections across a WAN (Wide Area Network) are often characterized by higher latency and lower bandwidth than Local Area Network (LAN) connections. Connecting a P6 Professional client application (Project Management) directly across the WAN to its database (client/server setup) can reduce performance of any operation and is not a recommended architecture by Oracle | Primavera.

This bulletin outlines alternative architecture solutions using the P6 Professional client applications over a WAN.

Scope

This bulletin is intended for Primavera Administrator's implementing P6 Professional Client Application(s) over WAN connection.
