On-Premise Deployment CURRENT
Deploy on your own infrastructure with complete control over data and security. Ideal for organizations with strict compliance requirements.
  • Complete data control
  • Custom security policies
  • No external dependencies
  • Predictable costs
Cloud Deployment RECOMMENDED
Leverage AWS managed services for scalability, reliability, and reduced operational overhead. Pay only for what you use.
  • Auto-scaling capabilities
  • Managed infrastructure
  • High availability
  • Usage-based pricing

On-Premise Configuration

Deploy a virtual machine configured with a lightweight, asynchronous task processing stack. The VM will run an Orchestrator Module for asynchronous task processing and Cron Jobs for periodic data source updates.
