While the preferred method is deploying from the AWS Marketplace, Nuvens has prepared alternative deployment methods to accommodate different scenarios, such as Custom VPC Configurations, Multi-Region Deployments, High Availability (HA) or Disaster Recovery (DR) Setups, IaC-Driven Deployments, etc. Some of these scenarios include:

  1. Install WorkSpaces Manager .

  2. Share and using the preferred method.

  3. and deploy using the preferred method.

  4. and use the Portal with methods #1 or #2.

In any scenario, we recommend using a Network Load Balancer (NLB) with a custom DNS name. This setup allows you to offload SSL certificates for secure communication and present the application through a user-friendly, custom domain name. The NLB ensures high availability, better traffic distribution, and efficient SSL termination, enhancing both security and performance.
