Client applications use one of theMATLAB Production Server™client APIs to access MATLAB functions that are deployed on aMATLAB Production Serverinstance. Clients communicate with server instances using HTTP or HTTPS and do not require theMATLAB Runtime.

In an on-premisesMATLAB Production Serverinstallation, the client APIs for .NET, Java^®, Python^®, and C are located in$MPS_INSTALL/client, where$MPS_INSTALLis theMATLAB Production Serverinstallation location. The client APIs are also available atMATLAB Production Server Client Libraries.

Using MATLAB as a client requires theMATLAB Client for MATLAB Production Serversupport package. You can install theMATLAB Client for MATLAB Production Serversupport package using the Add-On Explorer from MATLAB desktop. For more information about installing add-ons, seeGet and Manage Add-Ons(MATLAB).
