With Built-in Authentication (Simplified)
Deployment Architecture Options
Oxy supports two primary AWS deployment patterns, each optimized for different use cases:EC2 Deployment
Direct virtual machine deployment offering simplicity and full control.- Best for: Development, small teams, direct server control
- Key benefits: Simple setup, SSH access, cost-effective for steady workloads
- Architecture: Single instance with EBS storage
ECS Deployment
Container-based deployment with automatic scaling and high availability.- Best for: Production environments, scalable applications, enterprise deployments
- Key benefits: Auto-scaling, multi-AZ availability, managed infrastructure
- Architecture: Fargate containers with EFS shared storage
