AI on infrastructure your auditors will approve.
Public AI APIs are disqualified by procurement, compliance, or contract for the workloads where AI matters most. We deploy AI in any of four configurations — private AI cloud, your existing public cloud tenancy, on-premises in your data center, or hybrid — with documented data flows and procurement-grade attestations.
Four deployment configurations
Architecture diagram showing four deployment options for the Skyview AI stack: on-premises in your data center (air-gap supported), in your existing public cloud tenancy (Azure, AWS, or GCP), in the Skyview private AI cloud, or hybrid mixing the surfaces per workload. Same engineering, same managed operations across all four.
The problem
Public AI APIs do not survive procurement review. Healthcare, legal, public-sector, and regulated financial services workloads cannot send client data to third-party AI providers. The default architecture is disqualified at the contract stage.
Vendor lock-in is back. Building on a single foundation model provider means accepting their pricing, policy, and availability changes — with no architectural response when they happen.
Per-token pricing breaks at scale. Workloads with high query volume, large retrieval contexts, or agentic patterns produce quarterly bills that surprise finance teams. Predictable economics require a different deployment model.
What we do
Four secure deployment configurations. You pick the one that fits your data, security posture, regulatory requirements, and economics — we document the tradeoffs in writing before we ship.
On-premises in your data center
The full Skyview AI stack — self-hosted models, vector databases, retrieval, observability — installed inside your perimeter. Air-gapped supported. We spec, procure, and rack the hardware. Right answer for sovereignty, ITAR, federal research, and air-gapped workloads.
In your public cloud (Azure / AWS / GCP)
Architected, deployed, and operated inside your existing hyperscaler tenancy — wherever you have standardized. We work within your IAM, network controls, and existing commitments, integrating with managed AI services (Azure OpenAI, Bedrock, Vertex) where appropriate.
Skyview private AI cloud
Hosted in our Tier III TierPoint colocation facilities. Capacity, availability, and operations are our problem. Right answer for a turnkey hosted environment without standing up your own AI infrastructure or competing for cloud capacity.
Hybrid configuration
A mix of the above, per workload. Sensitive data on-prem, hot path in your cloud, frontier reasoning to a public API by exception. One engagement, multiple surfaces, documented data flows across the boundaries. The right answer for most enterprise deployments.
Built for compliance and control
Facility-level attestations
SOC 2 Type II, SOC 1 Type II, HIPAA / HITECH, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, GLBA, and ITAR posture available across our colocation footprints. EU-US Data Privacy Framework alignment.
Documented data flows
Every engagement ships with a written data-flow document — what data traverses what component, where it is stored, who has access. Procurement-defensible.
Open-weight model deployment
Llama, Mistral, Qwen, DeepSeek, or other open-weight models appropriate to your workload, running in our Kubernetes environment, updated on a schedule you control.
Private connectivity
Direct-connect, private peering, and VPN options for clients requiring low-latency private paths into the platform.
Per-tenant isolation
Workload isolation by default. No shared inference queues against unknown neighbors regardless of where deployment lands.
Operational tooling
Monitoring, alerting, logging, and observability across the stack. Your engineering team (or ours) can see what is happening at any time.
Business outcomes
AI on infrastructure procurement will approve
The deployment story survives security review, legal review, and CFO review. Workloads that would have been blocked under public-API architecture get unblocked.
Predictable, capacity-based economics
Workload-scaled monthly pricing replaces per-token surprises. The bill does not move when end-user behavior does.
No vendor lock-in
Open-weight models and documented architectures mean you are never trapped by a foundation-model provider's pricing, policy, or availability changes.
Same engineering team, every deployment
The team that designs and operates the Skyview private cloud is the team that deploys into your cloud or on-premises. Consistent operational rigor regardless of where the workload lands.
How it is priced
Monthly engagement priced to workload — GPU allocation, model sizes, storage, bandwidth, and managed scope. Capacity scales as needs change. No per-token surprises.
For on-premises deployments, pricing covers a one-time build / install plus monthly managed operations. Hardware is itemized separately and billed at cost. For clients also engaging Skyview Labs for application development, hosting is typically bundled into the engagement.
