Private Cloud configuration files

Applies to AnyLogic Cloud 2.8.0. Last modified on May 19, 2026.

The Private Cloud installation package creates a profile for an administrator user and places the configuration files in their directory. The default location for these files (assuming the administrator user has the default name alcadm) is as follows:

/home/alcadm/alc

Within this directory, all Cloud data and configuration files are kept for future use.

The alc directory contains the following subdirectories:

• anylogic-private-cloud — Contains the registry data and the Docker images that are used to create Docker containers that run the Private Cloud services.
• cache — Contains data for all Cloud services. Includes the following directories that correspond to specific service components:
  • balancer
  • dynproxy
  • executor
  • executor-multi-run
  • experiment-results
  • fileserver — stores persistent data
  • frontend — stores persistent data
  • postgres — stores persistent data
  • rabbitmq — stores persistent data
  • rest
  • statistics (legacy)
  • cassandra (legacy) — stores persistent data
  In addition, each of these directories is attached to a corresponding Cloud Docker container as a Docker volume.
• controller — Stores configuration files for the controller service and other Cloud components.
