When to Use Drasi Server

Drasi Server is ideal when you need full Drasi functionality as a standalone process without Kubernetes:

  • Local development — Run Drasi on your development machine for rapid iteration and testing without setting up a cluster
  • Docker environments — Integrate seamlessly with Docker Compose and container-based workflows
  • Non-Kubernetes production — Deploy Drasi in environments where Kubernetes isn’t available or practical
  • Edge deployments — Run change processing closer to your data sources with minimal infrastructure
  • Proof of concept — Validate Drasi solutions quickly before committing to a full Kubernetes deployment

It also includes a built-in Web UI for building and watching a pipeline visually, so you don’t have to start with configuration files or API calls.
