NetFoundry Deployment Options
NetFoundry offers three deployment models to cater to diverse networking needs. These deployment models offer flexible, secure, and efficient solutions to meet the networking needs of software providers, equipment manufacturers, IIoT and OT solution providers, enterprises, developers, and service providers.
NetFoundry Cloud
A cloud-native, Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) model.
This model is similar to SaaS where NetFoundry handles all hosting, updates, maintenance, and security, offering the entire solution on a subscription basis. It is ideal for businesses seeking cost-effective, flexible, and accessible software solutions. It allows organizations to spin up secure, high-performance overlay networks instantly across the programmable NetFoundry Fabric without the need for infrastructure provisioning or hardware deployment. The service is a consumption-based model that scales as needed​.NetFoundry Hybrid Cloud
An on-premise + private cloud model plus managed services.
This hybrid model refers to a software deployment model where the software is installed and operated on both NetFoundry’s cloud and the organization’s local servers or in their private clouds, but managed by NetFoundry. It offers the convenience of managed services, including installation, updates, and support. It is ideal for highly regulated industries or large enterprises requiring extensive customization and integration with existing systems, ensuring data privacy and compliance while reducing operational complexity.NetFoundry On-Premise
A traditional on-premise software model.
This model involves installing and running software on servers located within the physical premises or private clouds of the organization using it. It provides full control over the infrastructure, data security, and compliance with regulatory requirements. It requires significant initial investment in hardware and ongoing maintenance by the organization's IT team. On-premise solutions are ideal for companies needing extensive customization and integration with existing systems​.

Private DNS Management
Management of the NetFoundry private Domain Name System that translates domain names to IP addresses in a controlled and secure manner, inaccessible to the public internet.
Zero Trust Network Endpoints
Management of endpoints within a network that operates on a zero trust principle, meaning they do not automatically trust any request or connection without verification, applicable for various devices and environments like IoT, mobile, and cloud.
Policy Engine & Management
Creation, management and enforcement of network policies, dictating how resources are accessed and used within a network.
Telemetry, Visibility & Monitoring
Telemetry data management tracks network performance and usage, aiding in monitoring, troubleshooting, and optimization. Robust metrics are available for visibility.
Posture Checks, MFA
Built-in dynamic posture checks and multi-factor authentication, including X.509 certificates for OT, APIs, and servers. Supports third-party TOTP, MFA, Yubikey, and KeyCloak integrations, along with OICD, OAuth, and SPIFFE compatibility.
Identity, CA, and Directory Integrations
The integration of identity management systems, Certificate Authorities (CAs), and directory services (like LDAP or Active Directory) for streamlined user authentication and resource access control.
Network Access Control
Implementing Network Access Control (NAC) that is not dependent on the network infrastructure, for granular security.
Identities and Policies
Management of identities and security policies independently of the physical network, enabling consistent access rules across different network environments and platforms, facilitating secure application integration.
