How do I Select a Cloud Provider?

Mendix offers out-of-the-box integration with different cloud providers, which allows you to deploy your application with a single click from Mendix Studio Pro and the Mendix Portal.

Mendix makes use of container-based deployment technology. The creation of the container and the required services (like the database) is done automatically.

It is even possible to switch between cloud providers, so you can start developing and running your application on one cloud and later move it to another cloud.

Mendix Cloud is a fully managed cloud for running Mendix applications. It comes standard with deep insights, alerting, high availability, and backup and log management, all of which are self-service available. When Mendix Cloud is not an option, for example, due to data residency, compliance, or integration into existing cloud architecture, Mendix offers a wide range of deployment options.

At present, the integrated Mendix multi-cloud solution is supported for the following public cloud providers:

• Mendix Cloud
• SAP BTP
• Stack IT

And for the following (virtual) private cloud providers:

• Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS)
• Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
• Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
• MicroK8s
• k3s
• minikube
• Google Cloud Platform
• Google Kubernetes Engine – Autopilot
