INFO
Whenever possible, we recommend using managed services for databases, caches, and message queues. Managed services are easier to maintain and scale, and they often come with built-in monitoring and backup solutions. Although Adobe only officially supports AWS managed services, you can use other cloud providers as well, as long as the service versions are compatible with Magento / Adobe Commerce.
