hello,
We have been running Outsystems on their hosted solution for about a year now and although most or all things work as expected we would like to explore new integration components such as possibly Redis caching etc. From my understanding we can only do this if we were to host ourselves, or host on AWS via their marketplace.
Before I explore this further I just wanted to verify that is the case or could we request additional components such as Redis via Outsystems support?
My feeling is that we are a little constrained using the hosted option and if we want to expand on the integration services we would need to look at a self-hosted option (probably on AWS). Since we already use AWS, I see us hosting there as an advantage in that we can integrate with existing components/services we already have running.
Interested to hear others thoughts and what made them choose a self-hosted above a Outsystems-hosted solution.
Hi Colin,
If you have an OutSystems Cloud infrastructure license, the infrastructure is provisioned, hosted and supported by OutSystems on AWS. OutSystems does not have any services in their catalog that allow you to host other services like Redis in the VPC that they host.
You will need to have your own AWS VPC to host any additional services. You can of course then decide to host your services in the same data center as your OutSystems AWS infrastructure.
Regards,
Daniel
