Download the Installer¶
After purchasing EasyTask, log in to the EasyTask Web Console and navigate to the Client Portal dashboard. A download command is displayed there — copy it and run it on the Linux host where you plan to install.
The command downloads the installer and launches it automatically, guiding you through the remaining setup steps.
Deployment Types¶
Cloud Deployment¶
- EasyTask manages the host infrastructure for you.
- You only install the EasyTask Agent (and optionally the Integration Server) on your machines.
- The cloud installer uses
/run_easytask_agent_installerand downloads a lightweight agent package. - Get started with the Cloud Installation Guide .
On-Premises Deployment¶
- You host everything on your own Linux servers — full data sovereignty.
- The on-prem installer uses
/run_easytask_installerand downloads the full installer package with an interactive menu. - The installer sets up: PostgreSQL, KeyDB, Keycloak, OpenBao, Scheduler, Web UI, and Agents.
- Get started with the On-Premises Host Setup .
Choose the right command
Make sure you copy the correct download command from the Client Portal:
- Cloud: uses /run_easytask_agent_installer — only installs the agent binary
- On-Premises: uses /run_easytask_installer — provides the full interactive installer with all options

Frequently Asked Questions¶
Where do I find the download command? Log in to the EasyTask Web Console, navigate to the Client Portal dashboard, and copy the download command displayed there.
Does the installer require root privileges?
No. EasyTask uses rootless Podman and user-level systemd services, so no root access is needed for normal operation. Passwordless sudo is only required for the initial loginctl enable-linger setup on on-premises hosts.
What operating systems are supported? EasyTask supports Linux (Ubuntu 22.04 or later). See the Prerequisites Guide for full system requirements.
Can I switch from cloud to on-premises later? Yes. Task definitions, configurations, and integrations can be migrated between deployment types. Contact EasyTask support for assistance with migration.
