Quick Start Guides

These quick start guides explain the steps to deploy a NuoDB database in a variety of environments using the Limited Use License.

Before using NuoDB, a license file must be installed. To obtain a free Limited Use License, contact NuoDB Support.

The Limited Use License allows access to all the features of NuoDB with the following limitations:

  1. One Storage Manager (SM)

  2. One to three Transaction Engines (TEs)

The SM manages all database read and write operations to the database on disk, while the TE connects an application to the database and processes application SQL statements.

To perform a rolling upgrade two or more SM processes are required. This feature is available in the NuoDB Enterprise License.

NuoDB recommends using Docker or Kubernetes for an optimal user experience. A bare-metal installation on Linux physical or virtual machines is also available if you prefer.
