The page can be accessed from <geodiurl>/manager or the system tray icon(bottom-right) menu with "System Management Page".

This is the entry point for features like new project creation, classification settings, DECE-STORE, installation, and more.

The GEODI architecture is highly modular so that features may change depending on your license. Here, we will mention the basic features.

There are 4 sections on the management page.

1. Projects

This tab is where you manage projects. Create new projects, start/stop indexing, get system reports, and maintenance.

New Project

+ creates a new project. Before creating a project, we suggest that you finish choosing suitable templates for your needs, PCI/DSS, GDPR, SAMA, or any other discovery or classification rules. The details in Project Wizard . Once you create a project you may change the project. The project setting options may be limited once you start indexing.

Project List

The tab listed all projects. Unless you seek an Enterprise Search application, we suggest that to separate each data source and classification projects into separate projects. This is not mandatory but is easier to manage.

The settings for all projects are kept in %appdata% or a preferred folder. This is mentioned on the installation page.

2. Dictionaries

Dictionaries and Recognizers are the actors behind the discovery. This tab is only for managing dictionaries you define and dictionaries some recognizers use.

For most data protection regulations, you will hardly need a dictionary or recognizer. DECE-STORE has templates for all regulations and countries.

4. Support Area

Centrally Managing GEODI Servers

Many organizations may need multiple GEODI servers. Here are some reasons:

BigData. When you have massive data distributed in various FilseServers, Databases, Sharepoint, e-Mails, Hive, ElasticSearch, and more, you will need multiple GEODI Servers to complete the discovery in a reasonable time scale.

Auto Classification requires CPU resources, so we suggest separating the Classification servers. After that, you may also use multiple GEODI Classification Servers behind a load balancer.

You may install as many GEODI Servers as you need and prefer to manage them separately. There is also a method that makes managing easier and gains new features like getting consolidated reports and more.
