Hello,

Is there a current preferred method / provider for hosting GeoServer in the Cloud? I can see an option by Boundless on the Azure servers but other than that most of the links and blogs online seem to link to 404 pages.

Best Regards,

Paul Wittle

Hey Paul,

We have it deployed in AWS…works great! We did install it from OpenGeo and on RHEL 6.5 (I think because of some GDAL extension requirements, not supporting RHEL 7).

It basically works the same as on-premise only now you can scale more elastically.

Thanks,
Jason

At the risk of veering off topic. can you expand on the Master Map licence issues? Astun host OSMM (and other data) on AWS for GB Councils under the PMSA with out issue. Mostly we use Ubuntu images as a slightly easier set up than Centos

We also had an AWS instance using Centos that worked fine, however there were going to be licensing issues with using OS master map data on there so we stopped. Thought I’d mention that as your email address suggests you would likely have access to that data and may wish to use it.

I doubt there is anything to discriminant the various cloud providers for running a geoserver stack. I suspect that other factors such as cost and service levels would be your main drivers.

It was a while ago and not my area of expertise, I understand it the crux of issue was getting AWS to sign an OS contractor license but we did not pursue them that much to get someone to sign it. As we were only using AWS for development we just moved the map servers to our hosting company we were going to be using for the live system.

I’ve just set up Geoserver on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS in AWS. Pretty straightforward - Oracle Java - Tomcat 7 - deploy geoserver.war, etc.
