Self-hosting your App


The first method of publishing an App is by doing it yourself. This can mean that you are storing the data, keeping the App under control, and generally excluding Splunkbase altogether. This is a good methodology, especially when you are trying to monetize your App on a per license approach. Splunkbase doesn't have a methodology for restricting downloads, other than for export reasons. Really, if you don't use Splunkbase, you can publish your App anywhere, and as long as people find it and download it, it is published. There are many different ways to share your App; these are just a few: Apache/IIS web server, Amazon S3, and Dropbox. It's a short list, not meant to be comprehensive, but just enough to give you ideas on where to publish and display your App.
