GRAX and GovCloud
GRAX has received the Government Cloud badge from Salesforce
GRAX is compatible with AWS GovCloud
You deploy GRAX into your GovCloud cloud PaaS such as AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and others. In fact, many agencies and customers deploy and manage their own GRAX deployment in their cloud with the majority of our customers using AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, or a hybrid or multi-cloud environment. Other customers find that they can install and run a self-managed deployment of GRAX by placing it in a GovCloud-authorized data center and using a GovCloud-authorized Cloud Service Provider.
Key points about running GRAX within GovCloud certified environment
