# Installing and configuring the SDR sample

This section walks you through each part of the process of installing the SDR sample to use. If you are evaluating Pentaho software, we recommend using the graphical installation method for a quick set-up. If you already have Pentaho software installed, you can skip right to the section for downloading and installing the sample.

The sample that we are using here was developed by Pentaho, based on CTools, and is provided for example and testing purposes only.
