Database storage and hosting options

On-premises, cloud, and hybrid data warehouse decisions

Data warehouses can be hosted on-premises, in cloud platforms such as Azure or AWS, or through a hybrid approach. The best answer is not the same for every organization.

On-premises storage

On-premises systems can provide direct control over infrastructure, access, compliance requirements, and internal support practices. This can be valuable when data sensitivity or existing systems make local hosting practical.

Cloud hosting

Cloud hosting can provide scalability, redundancy, geographic options, and flexible resource management. It can be a strong choice when organizations need broader access, easier expansion, or managed infrastructure options.

WSI's flexible approach

WSI does not force a single hosting answer. We can help evaluate performance, security, backup, budget, administration, integration, and long-term support before recommending a practical path.
