Automatic AWS Deployment
NCache Enterprise Cloud supports two kinds of AWS deployment methods; Automatic & Manual. First, we'll be discussing Automatic Deployment.
In automatic AWS deployment you automatically deploy resources in your AWS subscription through the NCache Cloud Portal. Additionally, this deployment requires you to provide information about a IAM Deployment User with access rights over your subscription. The NCache Cloud Portal uses this user's credentials to create and manage all resources deployed in your subscription.
By choosing Automatic AWS Deployment, you are giving the NCache Cloud Portal the necessary rights to deploy and manage all resources inside your subscription. If you do not want to grant the NCache Cloud Portal these rights, please select Manual Deployment instead.
