What is the Cloud in Nekt?

Nekt operates directly within your organization’s cloud environment, ensuring data remains secure, accessible, and under your control. Unlike traditional platforms that require external storage, Nekt leverages your existing cloud infrastructure to manage and process data efficiently.

Currently, Nekt supports AWS, with plans to expand to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure, providing flexibility for diverse cloud strategies.


How Nekt Works in Your Cloud

Nekt integrates seamlessly with your cloud infrastructure, handling data storage, processing, and management while keeping your data in place:

  1. Data Storage
    Nekt stores your data in your cloud environment, ensuring full ownership and control. Whether it’s raw data, processed datasets, or analytics-ready tables, all data resides within your infrastructure.

  2. Processing
    Transformations and computations are executed using your cloud’s native resources, such as compute and storage services, ensuring scalability and performance.

  3. Centralized Management
    While your data remains in your cloud, Nekt provides a centralized platform to manage and orchestrate your workflows, simplifying data operations and aligning with your governance policies.


Supported Cloud Environments

  • AWS: Fully supported, leveraging services such as S3 for storage and EC2 for compute.
  • Coming Soon: Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure for even greater flexibility.

Why Nekt Operates in Your Cloud

Nekt’s approach is designed to align with modern cloud strategies, offering a secure, efficient, and scalable way to manage your data directly within your infrastructure.

Key Benefits

  • Enhanced Security: By keeping data in your cloud, Nekt minimizes exposure to external risks and ensures compliance with your security standards.
  • Full Ownership: Your data never leaves your environment, ensuring you retain complete control and ownership.
  • Cloud-Native Scalability: Leverage your cloud’s elastic resources to scale workloads seamlessly as your data needs grow.
  • Cost Efficiency: Avoid additional costs by utilizing your existing infrastructure for storage and processing.

How Nekt Stands Out

Unlike traditional platforms that require data to be moved to external systems, Nekt integrates directly into your cloud infrastructure. This offers significant advantages:

  • No Data Movement: Reduces latency and eliminates risks associated with transferring data between environments.
  • Seamless Integration: Works with your existing cloud-native tools and services for a unified workflow.
  • Customizable Resources: Lets you configure cloud resources based on your workload, optimizing performance and cost.

By combining these benefits, Nekt provides a future-proof solution tailored to modern cloud strategies.


Future-Proof Your Data Strategy

As organizations increasingly adopt multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments, Nekt’s architecture is designed to adapt. By integrating with your existing infrastructure, Nekt ensures flexibility and scalability, whether you’re expanding workloads, migrating to new providers, or embracing advanced analytics.
