Hi, We are working on setting up Octopus for our deployments. One of the questions we have is that if Octopus tool set up allows for any other storage system other than SQL Server database for storing the environment/ deployment history details? We are looking at file based storage as an option.
Based on the documentation in the below link, it does not look like it supports other system than SQL Server.
Please confirm so that we can configure accordingly.
Hi,
Thanks for getting in touch!
No, we don’t support any other storage system than SQL Server at this point in time.
Hope that helps!
Thank you and kind regards,
Henrik
Thank you; this helps confirming our configuration. I have another related question:
• When an Octopus server is installed, we generate a special key used for encryption, called the master key. The master key is then encrypted asymmetrically, using DPAPI, and stored in the Octopus configuration file.
• The master key is then used along with AES-128 to encrypt certain sensitive data in the Octopus database
Does Octopus support AES 256 algorithm? If so, what is to be changed in the set up process? Please provide details.
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
No, unfortunately we don’t currently support changing the algorithm used for our master key encryption.
Thank you and kind regards,
Henrik
To piggyback on the initial question, are there plans to support other systems like MySQL or PostgreSQL? Thanks.
Hi Keith,
No, there are currently no plans to support other storage systems.
Thank you and kind regards,
Henrik
