Planning your Convergence installation involves:

• Planning your system deployment. See the discussion about the Convergence deployment architecture in Convergence System Administrator's Guide for more information.

• Determining the services you plan to deliver in Convergence.

  For each service, review the planning guidelines for the corresponding application. For example, if you plan to deploy Convergence with the mail, calendar, and address book services, review the planning guidelines for Oracle Communications Messaging Server, Oracle Communications Calendar Server, and Oracle Communications Contacts Server.

• Determining the scale of your implementation. To determine the scale, consider the number of users you intend to serve and the number of services you intend to deliver.

• Designing your network around the services you plan to deliver.

Some Convergence features are limited by third-party applications. Consider the following limitations when planning your Convergence installation, and determine how to inform your users.

• HTML5 support:

  Some Convergence features are delivered over HTML5. Most browsers support HTML5 by default, but some browsers need to be configured to support HTML5.

• Tablet support:

  Convergence can be accessed on an Apple iPad (Safari browser) or a Samsung Galaxy Tab (Chrome browser). When Convergence is accessed from a supported tablet, the following subset of Convergence services is available: messaging, calendar, and address book.
