| - | ===== Types of BioStar 2 API ===== | ||
| - | ---- | ||
| - | There are two types of BioStar 2 API: BioStar 2 Cloud API and BioStar 2 Local API. \\ | ||
| - | Since BioStar 2 Cloud Server is located in Amazon Japan, you do not need to install any application to use BioStar 2 Cloud API except for setting cloud use. \\ | ||
| - | On the other hand, in case of BioStar 2 Local API, you should install additional application named BioStar 2 API Server on the local PC where BioStar 2 server has been already installed. In other words, BioStar 2 Local API can be used without cloud server. \\ \\ | ||

| - | ==== BioStar 2 Cloud API ==== | ||
| - | This diagram is about BioStar 2 Cloud API. An important point is that you access BioStar server by calling BioStar 2 API via Cloud Server. Furthermore, Ngrok is the secure tunnels that allows the external request(e.g. User Application) to access the local site(e.g. BioStar Server). | ||

| - | * **Pros:** | ||
| - | - Available to call BioStar API by using subdomain name without public IP \\ \\ | ||

| - | * **Cons:** | ||
| - | - Limit to processing speed \\ | ||

| - | |||
| - | ==== BioStar 2 Local API ==== | ||
| - | BioStar 2 Local API does not utilize the Cloud Server. Instead of usage of Cloud Server, you must install BioStar 2 API server separately on the local site. In this case, Ngrok is not needed since BioStar 2 API server is located in the same place with BioStar 2 server. | ||
