AWS Deployment

NCache Cloud deploys natively inside your own AWS account. We handle provisioning, patching, monitoring, and upgrades, while you keep the infrastructure, network control, and compute bill.

Single-site environments deploy in 15 to 20 minutes using AWS CloudFormation and Auto Scaling Groups (ASG).

Key Architecture and Deployment Features

Runs 100% Inside Your AWS Account: Cache servers deploy into a dedicated subnet within your own VPC (ncache-subnet), isolated by your own security rules. Data, logs, and telemetry never leave your cloud subscription.

  • Licensing Models: Choose from three deployment pathways through AWS Marketplace:

    • Hourly: Pay-as-you-go usage billing based on instance sizing.

    • Free Trial: A full-featured 30-day evaluation with all server profiles available.

    • BYOL: Use an existing NCache license across your cloud estate.

  • Identity and Access Management: Secured by Amazon Cognito for portal authentication and AWS IAM for resource authorization.

  • Monitoring and Telemetry: Integrates natively with Amazon CloudWatch for metrics and logs, routing through VPC endpoints without traversing the public internet.

  • Automated Upgrades and Patching: Rolling monthly OS patches and NCache updates run automatically during your configured maintenance window, ensuring zero cluster downtime.

  • Multi-Region and High Availability: Deploy multi-zone or multi-region topologies with cross-region WAN replication managed via NCache Bridge.
