Can I self-host iDBQuery on a single on-premise server?

Yes. iDBQuery can be self-hosted on your own infrastructure, including a single on-premise server, so the whole platform runs inside your network with no dependence on our cloud. There's also a Desktop app and an Embedded SDK for keeping data local, and deployments can be fully air-gapped.

iDBQuery is deliberately flexible about where it runs, because for many teams the deployment model is the security model.

Self-hosting options include:

  • Single on-premise server. For a team or department, iDBQuery can run on one server inside your own data centre or private cloud, keeping every component — application, metadata, credentials and cached results — within your walls.
  • Private VPC. Run iDBQuery inside your own cloud account so it sits alongside the databases it queries.
  • Fully air-gapped. For the strictest environments, iDBQuery can operate with no outbound internet connection at all.
  • Desktop app and Embedded SDK. Keep analysis local on a machine or embed iDBQuery's capabilities directly into your own application, with data never leaving the device or product.

Because iDBQuery queries your sources in place rather than provisioning a separate warehouse and a compute cluster, a self-hosted install is comparatively lightweight — you're not standing up a heavy data platform just to ask questions. It connects to the MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, spreadsheets, files, APIs and SQL data warehouses you already run, and builds one live model across them on your own hardware.

Self-hosting pairs with SSO, role-based access control and audit logging, so a private deployment still gives you enterprise identity and oversight — just entirely under your own control. Exact requirements depend on your environment, so we'll scope the right footprint with you.
