to synchronize design data among distributed workgroups, extending the
reach of the digital model to the entire project team.
Vault Professional
Vault Professional , previously known as Autodesk
®
Vault Manufacturing,
securely stores and manages engineering information, design data, and
documents-shortening the design-to-build and manufacture process. It includes
multisite tools to connect workgroups across discrete locations, helping the
entire design chain collaborate and share project information. Take full
advantage of advanced functionality by giving design departments the tools
they need to track change orders, manage bills of materials (BOMs), and
promote earlier collaboration through integration to expert business systems.
In addition, support for multi-CAD environments means that Vault clients
using non-Autodesk design products can aggregate and manage design data
throughout its lifecycle.
How Vault Works
As the previous diagrams have shown, each component can be configured to
run on its own server. When configuring a server for each component, refer
to the following workflow.
1 Client checks out a file.
2 Client sends a request for the file to the Vault server.
3 Vault server sends a query to the database.
4 Vault server copies the files from the file store to the client.
It is important to notice the client computer does not directly communicate
with another client computer at anytime.
NOTE The option to configure remote SQL is only available with Vault
Collaboration and Professional.
Autodesk Vault Clients
A vault client is any stand-alone application or integrated add-in that connects
to the Autodesk data management server to access files and perform vault
operations.
