SearchStax Private Cloud Azure

---

Overview

The SearchStax Managed Search service offers highly-secure Virtual Private Network (VNet) deployments using Microsoft Azure.

If your application resides in a VNet on Microsoft Azure, SearchStax can provide Solr instances in a separate VNet.

Security and Compliance Benefits

A Microsoft Azure Virtual Network is a logically-isolated portion of a public cloud environment. It is a virtual network with specific rules for accessing other portions of the cloud and the Internet in general.

A VNet provides a highly-secure environment that prevents unauthorized access, DDoS and other threats that can compromise your application and network security. The heightened security of the VNet helps you honor your compliance commitments.

How does Searchstax Managed Search interact with your VNet to provide Solr services without compromising security?

VNet Peering

The VNet Peering Option deploys the Solr servers in a VNet. This VNet communicates with your application VNet through VNet-peering.

This guarantees that all of the operational aspects of managing Apache Solr are handled by SearchStax personnel. SearchStax engineers do not need access to your VNet.

Limitations

SearchStax pricing for VNet Peering includes one terabyte (TB) of network bandwidth usage per month. Usage beyond this limit will incur an addition fee.
