For Version 13, we actually introduced the inclusion to use Amazon Web Services (AWS) S3 and Azure Blob Cloud Options. This integration will include Certificates and Event Documents from IndySoft, which can include Old Revisions of certificates and documents. As you store more items in the database, the size of the database will grow as well, by offering this integration, it will allow you to migrate information to a storage solution such as AWS. Currently, this integration is not currently supported if the Software is utilizing TechSync.
Agustin actually created a great video showcasing how this new available option is setup and works: https://videos.indysoft.com/nOuRpr84
