  • 1.  ILMT application and db install on EC2 instance

    Posted 04/23/26 01:34 PM

    Support - 

    Can the ILMT application and supported database be installed on an AWS Linux or Windows EC2 instance?

    If so, is this supported by the vendor?

    Also, are there any best practices or gotcha's we should be aware of, if ILMT application can be installed in the Cloud?

    Thank you,

    Thank you,

    Runing ILMT/database engine as a self-managed application on Amazon Web Services (AWS) or EC2 should be doable.
    As long as the network connectivity (inbound and outbound traffic) between database engine / (Bigfix Server or Disconnected scanner) and ILMT server can be setup.
     
    Is this supported by the vendor?
    Hard to say...
    IBM Compliance team should provide a final say so.
