Guidance and recommendations for deploying OpenLab CDS in the cloud
To ensure success, it is highly recommended to follow the following guidelines:
Cloud environments

To minimize overhead costs and risks in deployment, we recommend utilizing multiple sandboxes or VPCs (Virtual Private Clouds) in a pipeline process to deploy OpenLab cloud.Ideal sandboxes include:

  1. Test/Dev— Used for initial testing to define instance sizing and performance tests.
  2. GxP/QA— For GxP needs, a separate VPC for compliance testing is advised.
  3. Production— Environment used for managing operational systems.
Instance selection/sizing

The following instances have been tested and are supported for OpenLab CDS+ECM XT application servers.
