Wevo GL Analytics deploys where your data lives — not the other way around. Cloud, hybrid, or fully on-premise: every model includes the complete feature set, with no capability trade-offs.
The cloud deployment model means Wevo handles everything: infrastructure provisioning, scaling, patching, and monitoring. Your team gets immediate access to the full Wevo GL Analytics feature set without a single server to configure.
Wevo is deployed into your own cloud account — AWS, Azure, or GCP. You control the infrastructure, the region, the scaling, and the update schedule. SOC 2-aligned security controls apply throughout.
| Infrastructure | None required from you |
| Data location | Wevo cloud (region selectable) |
| Updates | Automatic — always current |
| Scaling | Elastic — managed by your team |
| Security | SOC 2-aligned, TLS, encryption at rest |
| Deployment speed | Fastest — typically days not months |
The hybrid model splits the deployment boundary cleanly: your GL data and database remain within your own infrastructure, while the application tier is deployed into your cloud account — keeping data on-premise whilst reducing local infrastructure overhead.
This is the most common choice for regulated organisations that need data residency assurance but want to avoid the full operational burden of an on-premise deployment. Your data never leaves your boundary; the application layer does not need to.
| Application tier | Cloud-deployed, client-controlled |
| Data location | Your infrastructure — never leaves |
| Database | Modern database platform — on your servers |
| Data in transit | Encrypted query results only — no raw data export |
| Updates | App tier: automatic. DB tier: coordinated with you |
| Deployment speed | Fast — DB setup + network configuration required |
The on-premise model deploys the complete Wevo GL Analytics stack within your own infrastructure. No external network connections are required for operation. Every component — reporting interface, application, database, and data — runs within your boundary.
This is the appropriate model for Tier-1 financial institutions, government departments, and any organisation with network isolation requirements. Wevo makes no external calls in this configuration — no licence verification, no telemetry, no cloud dependencies.
| Infrastructure | Fully yours — servers, OS, DB |
| External connectivity | Not required for operation |
| Air-gap | Capable — no external calls made |
| Updates | Coordinated deployment — your schedule |
| Database | Modern database platform |
| Deployment speed | Infrastructure-dependent |
The choice of deployment model determines where your data lives. It does not determine what the product can do. Every capability is available in every model.
A direct comparison across the dimensions that matter most for regulated finance environments.

Wevo GL Analytics is built on open, industry-standard database constructs rather than engine-specific syntax. This is a deliberate design decision that enables cross-platform portability without rewriting business logic — so you are never locked in to a particular database vendor.
The primary database platform for Wevo GL Analytics, with a fully optimised data architecture designed for continuous GL sync, zero-downtime data loads, and enterprise-scale reporting performance.
Wevo is compatible with most modern SQL database platforms, enabling deployment across a wide range of environments and reducing dependency on any single database vendor.
Every deployment model is built with the same security principles. The model determines where your data lives; the security standards apply regardless.
