Embedded analytics solutions come in three deployment models: fully managed SaaS (hosted by the vendor), customer‑hosted (private cloud or on‑premises) and hybrid.

Managed SaaS offers the fastest time‑to‑value and offloads maintenance, but may raise data residency concerns.

Customer‑hosted deployments give you control over infrastructure and compliance but require more operational effort.

Hybrid models separate control planes (metadata, auth) from data planes (queries), allowing sensitive queries to run in your environment.

MageMetrics delivers a managed control plane with the option to run query engines in your VPC or on‑prem, ensuring security and compliance without sacrificing agility.
