Before You Install

Autonomous Identity server software requires the following hardware and software requirements to run in your production environment. Autonomous Identity's flexible architecture runs in a variety of network environments: on-prem, cloud, multi-cloud, and hybrid.

Files to Download

You deploy Autonomous Identity using a Docker image that pulls other dependent images from the ForgeRock Google Cloud Registry (gcr.io) repository and installs the components on a target node. ForgeRock Autonomous Identity customers must contact ForgeRock for a registry key to download the images. For specific instructions on obtaining the registry key, see How To Configure Service Credentials (Push Auth, Docker) in Backstage.

Autonomous Identity requires the following Docker image for installation.
