We run RDS farms for PSCloud on premises - what would you use in AWS?

Hi All,

 

We expect to close our on premises DC’s in the coming years, and we currently run a traditional RDS farm with F5’s in front to enable the non-SSH/RDP workloads managed by PasswordSafe Cloud…

Microsoft RDS licensing options in AWS (AWS is the only answer for us - please don’t suggest Azure!) are very limited and the equivalent would be significantly more costly than the current level.

 

For other internal systems, we’re looking at AppStream2 - has anyone looked at this or other options for PasswordSafe Cloud or are we locked to RDS and the associated costs?

Trying to gauge what the community is doing and what experience, if any, is out there 😀

 

Many thanks in advance

Tim

Hey ​@Tim - Are you using this for PasswordSafe Applications where credential injection and only sharing the application is being used, or ‘landing machines’ to get around the environment?

 

If Applications:

  • RDS is the best suggestion - how it exists ‘under the hood’ for AWS, on-prem, or narnia is relatively irrelevant for us

 

If ‘landing machines’

  • Mind elaborating as to the use case? PasswordSafe is proxying the session through the resource brokers.
