Apiro is a heavyweight enterprise application meant to be installed into server class hardware. The commercial releases of Apiro are run as a highly available multimaster sharded cluster that can distribute work accross a large number of redundant server nodes.
In addition, Apiro's entire architecture is optimised for server operation, so things like memory and disk economy take a back seat to runtime performance.
We do not, therefore provide a ZIP file or local installer app for Apiro, as it is not a consumer application.
It is in fact quite tricky to shrinkwrap such an application into a conveniently available package for simple installation.
However, there are instances where you would want to install Apiro locally - one is for evaluation purposes, and the other is for development purposes. Apiro is designed to allow changes to go through the standard development lifecycle process of any other software project - where changes are made in a development installation and promoted in a controlled manner to production. Allowing each developer their own independent instance of Apiro is the most convenient mechanism for them to develop new pipeline processing elements and complex pipeline interactions. The console log is directly available in a local installation as well. The GitOps configuration mechanism baked into Apiro facilitates the movement of configuration from test systems to production using best practice automation.
