GraphDB Cloud has all the features of Graph DB Standard with the added advantage that it has been architected to run on the AWS Cloud as a pay-by-the-hour database service. GraphDB Cloud can be purchased as an AMI running on a variety of Amazon EC2 server instances: from 2-core / 8 GB RAM up to 8-core / 64 GB RAM. Organizations often want to develop and test in the cloud before bringing projects in-house with an on premises installation. GraphDB Cloud is perfect for running limited-time projects or low-volume experiments in a production-quality setting without an investment in licenses or hardware. All GraphDB Cloud instances are designed to store data on private user-managed AWS EBS volumes (network attached storage), so that your data is persisted and safe even if the instance is not running.
