What Happens?

During install and upgrade, Ucommerce creates tables and copies files.

SQL Database

When installing Ucommerce in a CMS, the Ucommerce tables will be added to the CMS database. All the tables are prefixed with "uCommerce_".

Installation can be done to a seperate database if needed.

Files

All Ucommerce files are placed in the same website as the CMS, and Ucommerce runs in the same operating system process as the CMS. Ucommerce is like a plugin to the CMS, but it is also its own system/platform.

RavenDB

Ucommerce runs an embedded version of RavenDB, it can be changed to an external server or hosted solution if needed.

Frontend

The Ucommerce product contains the back-office and API's. The frontend store needs to be custom implemented and using the API's. If you need a quick way to get started, please see Ucommerce Accelerator
