LangWatch Deployment Options
LangWatch offers three deployment options to accommodate different security, compliance, and operational needs:
Cloud
The software is hosted and managed by LangWatch.
LangWatch is responsible for availability and performance of the entire platform.
LangWatch may access the customer account for debugging purposes, with all access fully logged and requiring explicit permission requests
Ideal for businesses that want a fully managed solution without the need to maintain infrastructure.
Self-Hosted
The Client hosts and manages the full software on their own infrastructure, which may include on-premise servers or cloud environments such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.
The Client is solely for updates, security, and maintenance.
LangWatch offers additional services on deployment support and updates.
Best suited for organizations requiring complete data sovereignty.
Hybrid Self-Hosted
The Client utilizes LangWatch Cloud for LLM monitoring, evaluation and optimization, while all client data (input and output of LLMs) remains on the Client’s infrastructure.
LangWatch may access the customer account for debugging purposes, with all access fully logged and requiring explicit permission requests
The Client retains full responsibility for the management, security, and regulatory compliance of the LLM data..

Data centers: Hosted in EU-based AWS regions, ensuring compliance with European data residency regulations. Other regions such as US / Australia are available on request (via AWS marketplace)
Multi-region redundancy: Built-in disaster recovery with failover mechanisms across multiple AWS regions.
Data security & encryption
LangWatch ensures data security through strong encryption standards:
Encryption at Rest: All stored data is encrypted using AES-256 encryption and Redis queues.
