# Components

IDOL Data Admin uses the following IDOL components:

- Community. The IDOL Community component manages authentication and users. IDOL Data Admin stores information about users and administrators in IDOL Community.

  NOTE: IDOL Community requires an IDOL Agentstore subcomponent. However, you do not need to configure the details of the IDOL Community Agentstore component in IDOL Data Admin.

  For information about how to set up and configure Community, see the IDOL Server Administration Guide and the IDOL Server Reference.

- Content. The IDOL Content server indexes and stores the documents that your users search. IDOL Data Admin applies the rules that you create to documents in this IDOL Content server, and the searches that your users run against this server.

  For information about how to set up and configure IDOL Content, see the IDOL Server Administration Guide and the IDOL Server Reference.

- View. IDOL Data Admin uses the IDOL View Server to enable near-native document viewing.

  For information about how to set up and configure IDOL View Server, see the IDOL Server Administration Guide and the IDOL Server Reference.

Search Optimizer Components

IDOL Data Admin uses the following components for the Search Optimizer functionality, to manage, store, and apply the rules that you define.

When a user runs a search, QMS searches for appropriate rules in the QMS Agentstore, and applies them to the query or the results that return. The user interface also allows you to create QMS rules.

  For information about how to set up and configure QMS, see the QMS Administration Guide, and the QMS Reference.

- QMS Agentstore. The Agentstore that QMS uses to store the rules that you create in IDOL Data Admin.
