# On-prem stack mapping

IntelFactor can run fully local by replacing cloud services with on-prem equivalents.

| Cloud concept        | Local replacement                  | Purpose                                     |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| Object storage       | S3-compatible on-prem object store | Evidence packages, exports, model artifacts |
| DB / event store     | SQLite (edge) + PostgreSQL (site)  | Local continuity + cross-line reporting     |
| Time-series metrics  | Prometheus + Grafana               | Local observability + alerting              |
| Streaming (optional) | Local Kafka or batch sync          | Fleet visibility and replay on reconnect    |
| Auth (optional)      | Self-hosted identity + local JWT   | RBAC + auditability                         |
| CDN                  | Local reverse proxy / web server   | Serve dashboard + API locally               |

**Design principle:** cloud can enhance visibility. It never gates inspection continuity.
