Using IBM SPSS Modeler with a Repository
Figure 9-23
Storing a stream in the repository
E In the Repository: Store dialog box, choose the folder where you want to store the object, specify
any other information you want to record, and click the Store button. For more information, see
the topic Setting Object Prope r ties on p. 164.
Stream Deployment Options
The Deployme nt tab in the Stream Options dialog box allows you to specify options for deploying
the stream. You can deploy either as a stream or as a scenario.
When you deploy as a stream, you can open and modify the stream in the thin-client application
IBM® SPSS ® M odeler Advantage. The stream is stored in the repository as a file with the
extension .str.
Deploying as a scenario stores the stream in the repositor y as a file with the extension .scn. Doing
so also enables a stream to be used by Predict ive Applications version 5.
Whether you deploy as a stream or as a scenario, you can take advantage of the additional
functionality available with IBM® SPSS ® Collaboration and Deployment Services, such as
multi-user access, automated scoring, model refresh, and Cham pion Challenger analysis.
From the Deployment tab, you can also preview the stream de scription tha t IBM® SPSS®
Modeler creates for the stream. For more inf ormation, see the topic Stream Descrip tions in
Chapter 5 on p. 74.
Note: To ensure consistent access to enterprise data, a stream th at i s deployed as a scenario must
access its source data through IBM® SPSS® Collaboration and D eployment Services Enterprise
View, so in such a case the s tream must include at least one Enterprise View source node within
each designated scoring or modeling branch as applicable.
