SUMMARY

For test and training purposes, most people set up Sicily to use the Sicily simulator, a small SQL-like database with a few sets of customers, tokens, and so on. Sicily is designed to run using at least two servers in the production environment: one in the data center, another hosting the content exposed to the Internet.

However, Sicily is hard-coded such that you cannot put the Simulator Database onto a DC server and then access that information from a Sicily content server. If you want to run a Sicily dual-server setup, you must create your own SQL database of customers and tokens.
