File Storage Requirements
User data, messages, and folder information are all recorded in your database. Files are encrypted and stored on the local file system (for on-premises installations) or in the cloud (for hybrid cloud deployments). Optionally, files can be encrypted and stored in the database, though this is not recommended. Internal systems and processes can be configured to automatically store files in the Portal.
SecSign Portal File Storage Options
| Portal Local File Storage | Cloud File Storage (Amazon S3) | Database File Storage |
|---|---|---|
| For full on-premises deployments of SecSign Portal, files can be stored using any file system recognized by the OS, such as a local HDD, NAS, SAN, etc. | SecSign Portal can also be deployed on premises with a hybrid cloud option. The Portal server runs on your infrastructure, and files are stored in encrypted form in the cloud. SecSign Portal uses Amazon S3 for high capacity, reliable, scalable, and extremely fast file storage, while the Portal can be installed and can operate on your server for total control of security, encryption and decryption. | The latest version of Oracle now enables storing of SecSign Portal files in your database. Though this is not recommended, some enterprises may find advantages to database storage such as using backup standards that are already in place. |
