Note: this component stores cluster-wide configuration data and is mirrored across all servers in the topology within the the same cluster.
Note: changes to cluster-wide configuration objects are immediately and automatically mirrored across all servers within the same cluster, so offline changes are not supported.

| Description | Determines whether policy requests are made to the embedded PDP or over REST to an external policy decision server. |
| Default Value | embedded |
| Allowed Values | external - PDP invocations are made over REST to an external policy decision server. This mode may be more convenient in development environments where policies are being developed. When this option is selected policy requests will be directed to the external server defined by the policy-server property. embedded - PDP invocations are made via a Java call to the embedded PDP library. This is more efficient and is the recommended mode for production environments. When this option is selected the PDP will run with the policies defined by the deployment-package property. |
