On-Prem

On-Premises Deployment

Deploy Exasol on your own infrastructure for maximum control over data, execution and governance. Whether running in physical, virtualized or air-gapped environments, on-premises deployment helps organizations meet strict security, sovereignty and regulatory requirements while delivering high-performance analytics.

  • Customers requiring customization and full control over the environment

Hybrid

Hybrid Deployment

Hybrid deployment combines on-premises infrastructure with managed cloud resources, allowing organizations to keep sensitive data where it needs to be while scaling analytics where it makes the most sense.

  • Optimize performance and infrastructure costs
  • Balance data sovereignty with cloud scalability d cost-effectiveness with performance needs
  • Scale workloads without moving sensitive data unnecessarily
  • Companies with a mix of critical and less-sensitive data
  • Organizations looking to optimize costs while maintaining control over sensitive data
  • Enterprises requiring a balance between in-house IT control and cloud scalability

SaaS

Software as a Service (SaaS)

SaaS deployment allows you to access Exasol’s powerful analytics capabilities as a fully-managed service. This option eliminates the need for internal infrastructure, software maintenance, and system administration, enabling your team to focus on leveraging data insights for strategic decision-making. With SaaS, you benefit from quick deployment, automatic updates, and scalable resources without the typical IT overhead.

  • Quick and easy deployment with minimal setup
  • Reduced IT overhead and maintenance costs
  • Automatic updates and scaling
  • Scale as your workloads grow
  • Small to medium-sized businesses looking for rapid implementation
  • Enterprises with limited IT resources
  • Organizations focused on analytics rather than infrastructure management
