# 2. Introduction

This section describes the Vortex OpenSplice Tuner.

## 2.1. General Description

Vortex OpenSplice Tuner has been implemented in the Java language. It is possible to use it on every platform where a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) implementation is available. That means that Vortex OpenSplice Tuner does not require OpenSplice to be available on the local system.

Vortex OpenSplice Tuner is able to connect to one specific OpenSplice DDS domain at one specific node, both locally and remotely. It is possible to simultaneously connect one or more Vortex OpenSplice Tuners to a specific domainand node.

The diagram below shows an overview of a Vortex OpenSplice Tuner process connecting locally to a Vortex OpenSplicefederation (shared memory deployment) on one computing node. (Typically, there are many nodes within a system.)

The diagram below shows an overview of a Vortex OpenSplice Tuner process connecting remotely to a Vortex OpenSplice application (single process deployment). The Tuner service (aka the SOAP service) must be enabled in the Vortex OpenSplice configuration file to allow remote connection for tools.

While the figure details a remote connection to a single process deployment, one can also use the remote connection capability to connect to a shared memory deployment in the exact same way.
