Choose your path
Two ways to run Koha in the cloud on AWS. Start a 30-day free trial yourself, or book a consultation for a managed rollout.
Self-service cloud setup
Launch a ready-to-run Koha cloud server with a guided checklist. Best if you have IT support or prefer to manage it internally.
- Standard includes a 30-day trial (recommended)
- Choose where your library data is hosted
- Costs stay visible in AWS billing
- Optional help if you get stuck
30-day trial covers KohaSupport software charges. AWS infrastructure costs still apply.
Free Tier is best for evaluation and small pilots (evaluation limits apply)
Managed cloud setup
KohaSupport helps you launch and configure Koha on AWS and guides you to a production-ready setup. Best when you want less day-to-day management.
- Clear onboarding scope (defined deliverables)
- Optional add-ons: migration and staff training
- Optional ongoing operations
- Runs in your AWS account (you keep ownership)
