Deployment affects security responsibility, upgrade paths, operating cost, and delivery speed—not just where the server runs.
Turn guidance into a usable next step.
Use this guide to understand the practical workflow, the key decisions behind it, and the next action your team can take.
When cloud delivery is a good fit
Cloud delivery reduces infrastructure preparation and supports faster pilots and platform-managed updates.
When to assess private deployment
Consider it for strict network boundaries, internal identity integration, custom audit, backups, or deep business-system integration.
Clarify operational ownership
Document responsibility for monitoring, backups, certificates, security patches, upgrades, and incident response before delivery.
