Part of DonorHub Lite runs in your local office connecting to donation and accounting systems. But the more interesting part of DonorHub Lite runs on the Web. That's the whole point: providing donation and financial data to your staff via the Web. This help manual topic (Deployment Models) explains how these various parts fit together.
So, what are your options for the web hosting part?
Self hosting (running your own web server)
If you have a Windows server with SQL Server and ASP.NET, you have all you need. You'll want to acquaint yourself with this part of the help manual (Web Server Administration).
Here are the system requirements for the web server:
- Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 or newer.
- ASP.NET 2.0 runtime (registered with IIS).
- SSL certificate.
- SQL Server 2005 to 2012.
- If you are hosting the Replication Model, you'll need a paid-for license of SQL Server:
- Workgroup, Standard or Enterprise
- SQL Server 2014 and newer will not be supported.
