This procedure describes how to install the databases used by the Validate Address Global
stage. For instructions on installing databases used by other Universal Addressing stages, see the Spectrum Technology Platform Administration
Guide.
-
Download your Spectrum Product Database (SPD) format files from Precisely using the link provided in the Precisely communication or from data.precisely.com.

The SPD files are:
- VAGlobal-EMEA.spd—Contains the data for Europe, Middle East, and
Africa.
- VAGlobal-APAC.spd—Contains the data for Asia-Pacific.

Americas.
Note: You may install databases on a network share, but
performance will be affected since you will be accessing the databases on a network
rather than accessing the databases locally.
