MyConnection Server is frequently deployed as part of another application service and does not require a dedicated server. A built-in Web server engine is included, no third party software such as IIS or Apache is required. However, the MyConnection Server applet can be easily deployed under a third party web server such as Apache or IIS.

Desktop systems that access the MyConnection Server applet require a Java-enabled browser.
