Deploy Identity Where Control Matters Most

Whether you're operating in air-gapped networks, sovereign cloud environments, or under strict compliance mandates, Credenti’s on-prem and private cloud deployments ensure complete data control, resilient access, and secure identity without compromise.

Why Customers Choose Credenti On-Prem or Private Cloud Deployments

Organizations across regulated industries, government agencies, and high-security environments increasingly require identity solutions that align with stringent data control, compliance, and availability demands. Credenti's on-premises and private cloud deployment options are designed to meet these exact needs, enabling complete sovereignty over identity infrastructure without sacrificing performance or modern usability.

1. Data Sovereignty and Regulatory Compliance

Customers operating in jurisdictions with strict data residency laws or sector-specific mandates (e.g., CJIS, HIPAA, GDPR, FedRAMP) often cannot use public cloud services for identity. On-prem and private cloud deployments provide:

Full control over identity data
Localized storage for logs and user attributes
Aligned infrastructure to national or industry-specific regulations

2. Air-Gapped or Cloud-Restricted Environments

Some customer environments—particularly in defense, law enforcement, utilities, or critical infrastructure—prohibit internet access entirely or impose strict network segmentation. Credenti’s deployment model supports:

Fully air-gapped identity environments
Zero dependency on external APIs or cloud services
Secure local certificate-based authentication (mTLS)

3. High Availability and Local Performance

For organizations that require uninterrupted identity workflows, latency-sensitive operations, or resiliency during outages, Credenti enables:

High Availability (HA) clustering with PostgreSQL and Kubernetes
Distributed node architectures for site-level fault tolerance
Local authentication caching for seamless access even during external downtime

4. Integration with On-Premises Directory Systems

Customers with existing Active Directory infrastructure often prefer to keep user lifecycle management and authentication traffic local. Credenti provides:

Native integration with on-prem AD through Credenti AD Agent
Optional SCIM provisioning agent for hybrid environments
Support for delegated authentication and secure password operations

5. Private Cloud Strategy Alignment

For customers moving to private clouds (e.g., VMware, OpenStack, Azure Stack, AWS Outposts), Credenti offers cloud-native components that can be containerized and orchestrated within:

Private IaaS/PaaS platforms
Customer-managed Kubernetes clusters
Compliance-driven sovereign cloud regions

6. Security and Trust by Design

By default, Credenti's on-prem deployments incorporate:

Mutual TLS (mTLS) between all service components
Certificate-based workstation trust
End-to-end encryption for all identity traffic
Zero persistent dependencies on public cloud
Resilience against internet outages—local deployments continue functioning even when external connectivity is lost

Summary:

‍Credenti’s on-prem and private cloud deployment models are ideal for organizations that need to operate in secure, controlled, and regulation-aligned environments. From air-gapped labs to mission-critical enterprise identity, Credenti brings flexibility without compromise.
