This step uses the Caveonix RiskForesight™ configuration script. For the all-in-one deployment, this script is started through the IBM Cloud® for VMware Solutions automation.

For scaling, the client needs to call the script to provision the partially distributed topology or the fully distributed topology.

The script configures the following RiskForesight services:
- Caveonix Apps (API, Central Collector)
- Elastic Search
- PostgresSQL
- Remote Collector
- UI
- Kafka
- Kibana
- Certificates for all services

At the end of this step, the application components are installed on the required virtual machines.
