Getting started with Crystal DBA
There are three deployment models for Crystal DBA.
- Standalone. Run Crystal DBA locally, on your own servers, or even on your laptop. This is best for developers, or anyone who wants to get started as quickly as possible. It is less well suited to production environments, but is a great way to get a feel for Crystal DBA.
- Cloud Service. Run Crystal DBA on our secure and fully managed cloud service. This deployment model is suitable for production environments and when you want to provide controlled access to Crystal DBA to multiple members of a team.
- Custom. The custom deployment model is an enterprise option that allows you to tailor the installation to meet your organization’s specific security, compliance, and governance needs. It offers flexibility, with support for dedicated servers, Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) setups, and on-premises deployments.
If you are not sure which deployment model to choose, start with the standalone model to get familiar with Crystal DBA quickly.
