Hybrid Cloud

1 min read

Autonoedge Hybrid Cloud is a modern architecture that combines the flexibility of cloud-based orchestration with the control and performance of on-premise content storage. This setup is ideal for organizations managing a large number of edge devices that require secure, responsive, and scalable content delivery — without compromising data privacy or incurring high cloud storage costs.


Key Benefits #

  • Centralized Storage – Manage all required files from a single, secure location in the Autonoedge console.
  • Flexible Upload Options – Upload directly from your device or add via a hosted link.
  • Multi-File Type Support – Store and deploy applications, certificates, HTML kiosk files, and more.
  • Profile Integration – Easily attach stored files to profiles for automated deployment.
  • Scalable Deployment – Apply files to multiple devices or fleets with minimal effort.


Step 1 – Configure On-Premise File Storage #

Uploading Files #

  1. In the Autonoedge console, navigate to File System > Add > Files.
  2. Select Add by Link and input the full file URL.
  3. Example URL:
    http://192.168.1.1:3000/example_file
  4. Alternatively, you may enable LAN Access Only if you want devices to fetch content strictly over local networks.
  5. Click Upload to save the file reference.

Uploading APK/XAPK Files #

  1. In the Autonoedge console, navigate to File System > Add > APK/XAPK Files.
  2. Select Add by Link and input the full file URL.
  3. Example URL:
    http://www.yourwebsite.net/storage/apk/testapp.apk
  4. Alternatively, you may enable LAN Access Only if you want devices to fetch content strictly over local networks.
  5. Click Upload to save the file reference.

Note: This same process also applies when adding files in the iOS App Files, Windows App Files, Certificates, APNS Certificates, and HTML Kiosk Files sections within the File System.


Step 2 – Associate the Profile #

  1. Once your profile is configured with the selected files, associate the profile with the target fleet.
  2. Once associated, the files will be deployed on all devices in that fleet according to the profile settings.


Best Practices & Tips #

  • Use Descriptive File Names: Clearly name files to reflect their purpose and target devices (e.g., SalesApp_v1.2.apk).
  • Host Files on Reliable Servers: For links, ensure the file is hosted on a stable, accessible server to avoid broken deployments.
  • Verify File Integrity: Before uploading, check that files are complete, uncorrupted, and in the correct format.
  • Organize by Category: Keep related files grouped by type for quicker retrieval and deployment.
  • Remove Unused Files: Regularly clean up outdated or unused files to prevent clutter in the file repository.
