Installing on AWS Marketplace

AWS Marketplace is one of the easiest ways to get Curator up and running!
Best of all: AWS gives you the flexibility to bring an existing license you have already purchased from InterWorks, or you can purchase Curator right inside AWS Marketplace.

Using AWS Marketplace, your Curator instance is already installed and “ready to go”, so you don’t need to worry about anything, except enjoying your new Curator instance!

The two videos below illustrate the full launch process from within the AWS Marketplace.
The first video details the process when you already have a Curator license, while the second shows you how to spin up Curator purchasing directly from AWS.
