What deployment options does Noumena offer, and how do you choose between them?
Three models — fully managed, hybrid, and on-premise/private-cloud — trading convenience against data sovereignty.
Noumena's platform can be deployed to match an organisation's regulatory and operational needs:
| Model | What it is | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Managed service | Fully hosted on compliant infrastructure (AWS, Azure), banking-grade zero-trust, continuous updates and patching | Fintechs, startups, pilots — fastest time to value, no DevOps overhead |
| Hybrid | Control and compute planes separated: keep sensitive data on-premise, outsource orchestration and smart-contract logic | Organisations wanting flexibility and a gradual path toward self-hosting |
| On-premise / private cloud | Full deployment on your own infrastructure — cloud or data centre | Regulated financial institutions and government — highest data residency, isolation, and sovereignty |
The rule of thumb: the more regulated and sovereignty-sensitive the data, the further you move from managed toward on-premise, accepting more operational burden in exchange for control.
