04/02/2024, 6:33 PMWe're not prescriptive, but we run it as a container through Lambda. We've also seen quite a bit of EKS.

04/02/2024, 6:36 PMOkay, I see. Thank you. And is it advisable to spin up one instance per environment (dev/prod) or just one instance?

04/02/2024, 6:37 PMwe have one cluster total which autoscales. the mongo database is hosted separately from the instances

04/02/2024, 6:38 PMI guess I’m wondering for spinning up on-prem docker images - not GB cloud

04/02/2024, 6:39 PMa single instance is probably sufficient as long as you add a caching layer (CDN, proxy, or both)

04/02/2024, 6:40 PMgotcha. But in case we did decide to spin up two instances (since our dev / prod VPCs are walled, we might have to), that’s possible from the subscription perspective?

04/02/2024, 6:41 PMas in, can we use the same contract for two instances?

04/02/2024, 6:42 PMprobably, i think. not sure how it's configured on your end. Just be sure to allow both instances to speak with the same mongo cluster.

04/02/2024, 6:43 PMwe’ll be using aws documentDB i think, not mongo

04/02/2024, 6:44 PMmost folks use the same database so that they can move feature rules and experiments between environments for ease of testing
