Just a quick question. Currently we run all our Elastic Synthetics journeys which use private locations from a Kubernetes cluster using the `elastic-agent-complete` image. I have been given a requirement to deploy additional private locations to other data centers, where it is unfeasible to deploy a K8S cluster, and we do not use Docker.

Is there a package that allows me to run Elastic Synthetics journeys from a server? It's always failed when I tried it in the past.

Thx.

We do require that browser journeys run in a container due to the complex OS / library requirements of a full browser. You could use another container runtime, but it does require the container.
