Node Manager has been engineered to streamline the setup and configuration of both individual S2IX Nodes and S2IX Node Networks. It employs a structured approach, utilizing node schemas and a configuration file to accurately define the setup parameters for a Node or an entire Node network. This mechanism ensures that each Node is configured consistently and in alignment with the operational requirements of the S2IX platform. Through Node Manager, administrators can efficiently orchestrate the deployment of Nodes, making it easier to scale the Node Network and maintain optimal performance across the S2IX environment. Node Manager's ability to automate and standardize Node configuration significantly reduces the complexity of managing a secure and efficient Node Network, essential for the robust information exchange capabilities of S2IX.
