Deployment Options
Exasol offers the following deployment options:
- Exasol On-Prem: Install Exasol on your own hardware or private cloud. For more information, see Exasol On-Prem.
- Exasol on Public Cloud: Deploy Exasol on a public cloud platform such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform.
Licenses can be obtained directly from Exasol for all deployment options. For cloud deployments, a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) version is available in the corresponding marketplaces as an alternative to the bring-your-own-license (BYOL) model. For more information, see Licenses.
Virtualization
We do not recommend deploying Exasol as a virtual machine in production scenarios. Virtualization using a hypervisor such as VirtualBox, VMWare, Hyper-V or KVM is only recommended for testing purposes.
