AI & DATA IN YOUR OWN DATACENTRE

AI & Data On-Premises

Run the complete platform — AI agents, analytics, and your data — inside your own datacentre or edge sites, so your data, models, and prompts never leave your perimeter, with cloud-grade operations and confidential computing on your own hardware.

In Your Perimeter

Run the complete platform on hardware you own and operate — data never leaves your datacentre or edge site.

Confidential On-Prem

Confidential VMs and GPUs on AMD SEV-SNP and Intel TDX keep data and models encrypted in use, on your own hardware.

Cloud to Air-Gapped

The same AI OS runs from Azure-consistent on-prem infrastructure through to fully disconnected, air-gapped networks.

Definition

On-premises AI & data means running the entire platform — models, agents, ontology, and analytics — on infrastructure you own and operate, inside your own datacentre or edge location. Data and models stay physically within your perimeter and under your control, with confidential computing and zero-trust enforcement available on your own hardware.

Hyperscale cloud is not always an option: data-residency rules, sovereignty mandates, latency, or disconnected sites can require AI to run where the data lives. The AI OS runs entirely on-premises — the same agents, ontology, and insights you would run in the cloud — keeping data, models, and prompts physically inside your perimeter. From Azure-consistent infrastructure with Azure Local through to fully disconnected, air-gapped networks, you choose how much of the cloud operating model to bring in-house without giving up control.

The AI OS only works if it can be trusted. Every layer of the platform rests on a zero-trust infrastructure and identity foundation that operates consistently from fully air-gapped on-premises deployments through to hyperscale cloud environments. Sovereignty is not a feature added on top — it is the condition under which everything else operates.

  • Zero-trust architecture: Continuous verification for every request, every user, and every workload — no implicit trust, even inside the perimeter.
  • Federated identity: Seamless integration with your existing IdP (SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC) for unified, policy-enforced access control.
  • Air-gapped deployment: Run the complete platform with no external network dependencies — ideal for defence, critical national infrastructure, and classified workloads.
  • Confidential computing: Hardware-level encryption of data in use via AMD SEV-SNP and Intel SGX, protecting workloads even from infrastructure administrators.

Deployment Options: From Air-gapped to Cloud

IN YOUR DATACENTRE

The full platform, on hardware you control

On-premises deployment runs every layer of the platform inside your own environment. Data and models stay resident in your datacentre or at the edge, while you keep a cloud-grade operating model and the same zero-trust and confidential-computing controls used everywhere else.

  • Data resident in your perimeterData, models, and prompts stay physically inside your datacentre or edge site — important for sovereignty and data-residency rules.

  • Confidential computing on-premHardware-isolated confidential VMs and GPUs on AMD SEV-SNP and Intel TDX keep memory encrypted during execution.

  • Zero-trust and identityThe same federated identity and zero-trust access model applies on-premises as in the cloud.

  • Same capabilities everywhereThe same AI OS, ontology, agents, and insights as a cloud deployment — sovereignty never depends on where you run.

DEPLOYMENT OPTIONS

Where you can run the platform on-premises

The AI OS runs across on-premises targets, from Azure-consistent infrastructure in your datacentre to fully disconnected networks — so you can match the operating model to your sovereignty and connectivity requirements.

  • Azure LocalRun the AI OS on Azure Local (formerly Azure Stack HCI) — Azure-consistent infrastructure in your own datacentre, with confidential VMs and GPUs, and Microsoft Foundry Local for on-device inference.

  • Air-GappedRun the complete platform on fully disconnected networks, with no internet and no external dependencies — sovereignty in its strictest form.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does running the platform on-premises mean?+
It means running the entire AI and data platform — models, agents, ontology, and analytics — on infrastructure you own and operate, inside your own datacentre or edge location, so data and models stay physically within your perimeter rather than in a public cloud region.
Can I use confidential computing on-premises?+
Yes. On-premises deployments support confidential VMs on AMD SEV-SNP and Intel TDX, and confidential GPUs, so AI inference and training run with data and model weights encrypted in use — on your own hardware, inside your own datacentre.
What is Azure Local and how does it fit?+
Azure Local (formerly Azure Stack HCI) is Azure-consistent infrastructure that runs in your own datacentre or edge location. Running the AI OS on Azure Local gives you a cloud-grade operating model while data stays in your perimeter, with confidential computing available on your own hardware.
How is on-premises different from air-gapped?+
Air-gapped is the strictest form of on-premises: the platform runs on networks fully disconnected from the public internet. Other on-premises options, such as Azure Local, keep data in your perimeter while still allowing controlled connectivity for a cloud-consistent operating model. Both run the same AI OS.
Do on-premises deployments lose any capabilities?+
No. You get the same AI OS, ontology, agents, and insights as a cloud deployment. Because the platform is model-agnostic and can serve open-weight models on your own hardware, frontier-grade AI works without depending on external services.
