Site operations
The following technical operations roles are supported by WebSphere Commerce:
Site Administrator
The Site Administrator installs, configures, and maintains WebSphere Commerce and the associated software and hardware. The Administrator responds to system warnings, alerts, and errors, and diagnoses and resolves system problems. This role typically controls access and authorization (creating and assigning members to the appropriate role), manages the Web site, monitors performance, and manages load balancing tasks. The Site Administrator may also be responsible for establishing and maintaining several server configurations for different stages of development such as testing, staging, and production. This role also handles critical system backups and resolves performance problems.
Store Administrator
The Store Administrator manages the store assets, and updates and publishes changes to taxes, shipping, and store information. The Store Administrator can also manage the access control policies for the organization. The Store Administrator, usually the lead on the store development team, is the only role on the team with the authority to publish a store archive (the Site Administrator can also publish a store archive). The Store Administrator is usually Web-literate and has a thorough knowledge of the store's business procedures.
