geocortex core service - Local vs Service Account

What's a best practice for the "Geocortex Core" service to run as a Local account or as Service Account? If so why?

 

I know ArcGIS for Server Service is best run as a service account so you can connect & write to different drives, etc.

 

Is this "Geocortex Core" service account is used if you select "Windows Authentication" when adding a data connection? If so what permissions are best...R/W?

 

Does this the account interact with the "data store" document in any way?

 

I feel like the Geocortex Service has evolved a bit so I am poking for a refresher as I do security audit's on all of our clients setups.

  Hi,

   

  There isn't any reason to change the Core service to use a service account. Any actions in Essentials that could require a domain service account are handled by the two IIS Application Pools. We used to create a local user account for each of these App Pools but now we use the ApplicationPoolIdentity. If you do change these Application Pools to use a domain service account make sure to run/finish the Post Installer so permissions on the Essentials installation are correct.

   

  Thanks,
