Fig. 4.0 · Deployment

Your environment. Your terms.

Cloud, on-prem, edge, air-gapped. Install over a clean network or an empty one.

[ Models ]

Three ways to deploy.

Pick the operating model that fits your team. Switch later if it changes.

Model 01

your-server.local
$ curl get.sector88.co | sh
→ runtime installed
$ s88 serve

Self-hosted

You install it. We support it.

  • Sector88 binaries
  • Docs & reference architectures
  • Email support

Cloud · On-prem

Model 02

hub.sector88.co
Fleet healthy
node-prod-01
node-prod-02
node-prod-03 · syncing

Managed

We run the control plane. Compute stays with you.

  • Hosted control plane with SLA
  • Sector88 on site
  • Dedicated support

On-prem · Edge

Forward-deployed

We come on site. We stay until live.

  • On-site hardware audit
  • Benchmarks & hardening
  • Knowledge transfer

Air-gapped · Classified

Forward-deployed environment

[ Environments ]

Anywhere you can put a server. And places you can't.

Cloud

AWS, Azure, GCP. Your VPC, your account, your billing.

On-premise

Your data centre, your network, your control. Full sovereignty.

Edge

Remote sites, vehicles, ships, ground stations. Intermittent links.

Air-gapped

Zero outbound connectivity. Install via offline media. No phone-home.

Classified

SCIF, sovereign clouds, IRAP, ITAR-friendly. Cleared engineers.

[ Process ]

From kickoff to live in production.

Every deployment runs through the same five phases. Self-hosted teams run them themselves. Forward-deployed sites get our engineers on site for each one.

01

Audit

Hardware probe

We inventory the hardware, network constraints, and security posture.

02

Install

Node + control plane

Drop the binary, point the node at the control plane, workloads load. Hours, not weeks.

03

Benchmark

Real workloads

Throughput, latency, cost measured against your traffic. Reports exported.

04

Harden

Security review

Egress firewalls, encryption at rest, RBAC, audit pipelines, red-team probes.

05

Live

Production

Cutover. Knowledge transfer. We step back. The platform stays.

One layer across the metal.

Every major GPU, CPU and edge accelerator. One install.

[ Licensing ]

Simple licensing.

Per-node, per-year. No usage metering. No token counting. No surprise bills.

On the machine

Per node, per year. A node is any machine running Sector88.

Across the fleet

Self-hosted control plane included with Enterprise. Managed control plane priced by fleet size.

Forward-deployed engagements

Scoped per site. We quote after the hardware audit, not before.

Deploy where the cloud cannot reach.

Self-hosted, managed, or forward-deployed. We pick the model with you, then make it live.
