Installation and Deployment Options¶
Selecting a platform for QATrack+¶
Currently there are two “officially” supported platforms for deploying QATrack+ on: 1) Ubuntu Linux (18.04+) with PostgreSql (or MySQL) and 2) Windows Server 2017+ with SQL Server.
The platform you choose will generally depend on what type of system you or your clinic has the most expertise in and / or your budget (Microsoft tools can be expensive!).

Note there is no official support for the platforms listed below. That doesn’t necessarily mean they are unreliable, just that you may be on your own if you run into any issues. Of course you can always look for help on the mailing list.
