Last updated 2 months ago

e6data is a next generation, lakehouse compute engine that empowers organizations to run fast, efficient, and secure analytics within their cloud environments. With an architecture designed for flexibility and data security, e6data offers two deployment models to meet diverse needs:

  1. In VPC Deployment Model – Both the Data and Compute planes run within the customer’s Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), ensuring maximum control over security, networking, and resource management.

  2. Serverless Deployment Model – The fully managed Control and Compute planes operate within e6data’s secure cloud boundary, offering dynamic scalability and ease of use.

Both models are built with security at their core, enabling customers to perform analytics without moving data outside their cloud boundary, while benefitting from e6data's seamless management capabilities.

Deployment Models

  • In VPC Deployment Model This model is ideal for organizations looking to maintain control over both data and compute resources within their environment. The Data Plane, which already exists within the customer’s cloud boundary, connects seamlessly to an e6data-managed Compute Plane in the same environment. The Control Plane, hosted by e6data, provides deployment, management, and monitoring support without handling any customer data

  • Connect to e6data serverless compute Designed for flexibility and scalability, the serverless model allows customers to leverage e6data’s fully managed infrastructure. Here, both the Control and Compute planes operate within e6data’s secure cloud boundary, while data remains in the customer’s cloud account. e6data dynamically manages compute resources, ensuring efficient use and smooth operations.

By offering both cloud-prem and serverless deployment options, e6data ensures that customers can select the architecture that best meets their operational, compliance, and scalability requirements.
