Single Standalone setup

Topology

💁🏻‍♂️🎛️ → ▶️ → 📺

In the Single Standalone setup setup, the Studio (server) and Player (client) are both installed on the same device (e.g., a Raspberry Pi) that is connected to a Screen. This is ideal for a simple, single-screen installation.

• Management: Managed through a single studio URL for server control.
• Devices: One all-in-one device (e.g., Raspberry Pi, PC) connected to the Screen.

Here, Repeated Single Standalone setup setups are running independently, each with their own URL. You have to reach each server URL individually to control them.

• Management: Individually managed through many different server web endpoint.
• Devices: Several devices (e.g., multiple Raspberry Pi or PCs) each connected to their own Screen.

Managed Multiple Standalone Setup

Topology

Arbitrary choice of one Studio Server with Studio Fleet Management enabled.

Here, Managed Multiple Standalone setup setups are running independently, each with their own URL. To enable this and simplify management, you have to activate Studio Fleet Management in settings for one server (choosen arbitrarily as the "main" one) to control all others from a single interface.

• Management: Centrally managed through a single web page that aggregates the server URLs.
• Devices: Several devices (e.g., multiple Raspberry Pi or PCs) each connected to their own Screen. Studio Fleet Management allows unified control of all setups.
