Hosted and private publication repositories

Choose to use a hosted or a private publication repository based on the functionality that your organization requires.

Hosted publication repository: Cloud Integration Hub
hosts and manages the publication repository on
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
Hosting Services. Storage usage of the repository shows on the
Cloud Integration Hub
home page.
Use a hosted publication repository to host a relational database. If you use an on-premises Secure Agent, you can use the hosted publication repository to host a file store publication repository.
Only Amazon Web Services and Azure NTT pods support the hosted publication repository.
Private publication repository: Use your own, private repository. A private publication repository can reside on-premises or on the organization's private cloud.
You can use a private publication repository to host a relational database. If the repository resides on-premises, you can use it to host a file store publication repository. For more information about setting up a private publication repository, see Set up a private publication repository.
