Hosting Options

Cogynt can be deployed and hosted via two methods:

1. Self-Hosted
2. Cogility-Hosted

Self-Hosted Deployments

In this option, the customer chooses to host Cogynt within their Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), which requires a greater set of responsibilities than the Cogility Cloud option.

The following table delineates the responsibilities. A checkmark (✓) indicates a responsible party, while an X indicates that the party is not responsible:

Function	Customer Responsibility	Cogility Responsibility	Notes
Installation	✓	X	N/A
Infrastructure Maintenance	✓	X	N/A
Troubleshooting	✓	X	N/A
Backups	✓	X	N/A
Fault Recovery	✓	X	N/A
Version Update	✓	X	Although customers choose when to update their version of Cogynt, some updates may be designated as Long Term Support (LTS). Any version older than the LTS is considered deprecated.
Termination	✓	X	N/A
Cloud Provider Service Costs	✓	X	N/A

There are a number of considerations that a customer should carefully review before choosing this deployment option. For more information, see Self-Hosted Deployment Overview.
