Architecture

Built for customer-owned data and operational resilience.

Each customer receives a dedicated WatchElement deployment that separates collection, processing, applications and data services while keeping operational data under customer control.

WatchElement architecture layers

Clear technical boundaries without operational silos.

Each layer has a defined role while contributing to a unified operating experience across security, network and observability functions.

Data sovereignty

Data Sovereignty by Design

WatchElement is designed to support data-sovereignty requirements through dedicated architecture, customer-controlled data placement and explicit operational boundaries.

Operational telemetry

Logs and metrics remain within the approved customer-controlled data architecture.

Operations records

Alerts, cases and operational evidence stay inside the dedicated customer environment.

Decision outputs

Reports and dashboards are generated and retained within customer-governed boundaries.

Continuity data

Backups and recovery copies follow the approved customer data placement and resilience design.

Data location, retention, access controls and recovery topology are defined during architecture planning. This design approach supports customer sovereignty objectives without representing a legal or regulatory certification.

Workload architecture

Container agility with durable data foundations.

Application services can run as containerized workloads while persistent data services remain designed around durability, performance and recovery requirements.

WatchElement Container Platform

Containerized WatchElement application services use Kubernetes orchestration for controlled scaling and repeatable operations.

Scalable application services

Horizontally scalable processing and application services adapt to approved capacity and availability requirements.

Dedicated data services

Persistent VM-based data services provide durability and operational separation for each customer deployment.

Access boundaries

Segmentation and role-aware access patterns separate platform, administrative and operational responsibilities.

Distributed collection

Collection services can be positioned close to monitored environments while feeding governed central services.

Lifecycle control

Versioned configuration and repeatable deployment practices support maintainable platform evolution.

Data topology depends on approved volume, retention, availability and recovery requirements.

Deployment options

One platform architecture. Multiple customer-controlled models.

Choose the deployment boundary that matches the customer infrastructure, connectivity and operating requirements. Every model remains dedicated and isolated.

WatchElement Platform

WatchElement Appliance

Dedicated platform deployment for customer-controlled infrastructure.

Customer On-Premises

Platform services deployed within approved customer infrastructure.

Customer Private Cloud

Dedicated services operated inside the customer private-cloud boundary.

Customer Public Cloud

Deployment in the customer-owned public-cloud subscription.

Hybrid

Coordinated operation across approved on-premises and cloud environments.

Government-Isolated

Dedicated deployment inside approved, separated government infrastructure.

Air-Gapped / Disconnected

Controlled operation where external connectivity is restricted or unavailable.

WatchElement Appliance

A dedicated WatchElement platform deployment designed for customer-controlled infrastructure. Deployment is sized according to customer scope and operational requirements; no fixed hardware specification is assumed.

Resilience patterns

Architect for service continuity and recoverability.

High availability and disaster recovery are design decisions shaped by site topology, infrastructure capability and organizational recovery objectives.
