On premise installation

[vhsantos]

Feature description

We should be able to install Infisical on-premises without relying on Docker or Kubernetes. The reasons for this are clear:

1. Not everyone uses Docker or Kubernetes.
2. Many organizations use Docker/Kubernetes to store Kubernetes secrets in Infisical. However, they can't create a cluster in this scenario because Infisical isn't available.

Why would it be useful?

Allowing Infisical to be installed without Docker/Kubernetes would enable companies to integrate it into their existing infrastructure more easily. This approach would support high availability (HA) setups, with some instances of Infisical running on virtual machines or hosts and others on Docker/Kubernetes.

Found a similar request #1828 but some estimate when this binary can be available ?

@vhsantos Here is the corresponding documentation that goes along with your inquiry. https://infisical.com/docs/self-hosting/deployment-options/native/standalone-binary

@Daemoen, there is an issue with the doc, since the service is supposed to call /usr/local/bin/infisical-core while this binary do not exist at all (I did a find / -type f -iname 'infisical-core' on the server). What is found, however, is infisical-ctl located in /opt/infisical-core/bin And none of the commands I tried with it are working (restart, status, start, show-config...)

@maidul98, is there more info about this please? The standalone binary installation documentation seems not up-to-date. My tests are on Debian 12, where it is supposed to just work according to #1828.
