Superblocks GCP Cloud-Prem delivers the full power of Superblocks in a deployment model designed for organizations that require strict data residency, security controls, and infrastructure ownership. With GCP Cloud-Prem, Superblocks runs as a dedicated, single-tenant deployment inside your Google Cloud account. This gives customers direct control over networking, data boundaries, and compliance posture, while Superblocks continues to manage the platform lifecycle, upgrades, and reliability. The result is the trust and governance of customer-owned infrastructure—without the operational burden, slow iteration cycles, or complexity of traditional self-hosted deployments.

​
GCP single region architecture

In the single region deployment, the Control Plane and Data Plane run in the same Google Cloud region.

​
GCP multi-region architecture

In a multi-region deployment, the Superblocks control plane runs in a single Google Cloud VPC in one region, while each Google Cloud region that hosts customer data runs a local data plane. Applications connect directly to the regional data plane closest to the data, ensuring low latency and regional isolation. All communication is outbound-only from the data plane, so customers are not required to allow inbound network access or open firewall ports. This architecture delivers regional performance, strong network isolation, and simplified security posture while supporting global deployments.

​
How it works

In the Superblocks GCP Cloud-Prem deployment model:
  • Superblocks is deployed as a dedicated, single-tenant instance within your Google Cloud account
  • AI inference is executed on Google Vertex AI, using models and regions you control
  • Applications connect directly to the Superblocks data plane running in a Google Cloud region colocated with your private data, minimizing latency and data movement
  • Your team authenticates using your enterprise SSO provider, with identity and access governed by your existing GCP IAM policies
  • Superblocks operates and supports the platform as a fully managed service, adhering to least-privilege access and customer-defined boundaries
This model ensures that all application data, AI inputs, and AI outputs remain within your Google Cloud environment, while Superblocks manages platform operations—including upgrades, security patches, reliability, and ongoing support—without requiring you to run or maintain the system yourself.

​
Why choose Cloud-Prem

GCP Cloud-Prem is best for enterprises requiring the highest level of compliance, security, and data residency. Customers in Financial Services, Insurance, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Telecommunications, and Government often choose this deployment model because:
  • GCP data residency and isolation: All application data, AI prompts, and AI responses are processed and stored entirely within your Google Cloud account and selected Google Cloud regions.
  • Customer-managed AI inference on Vertex AI: Clark performs inference using Vertex AI in your Google Cloud account, governed by your regional selection, model access controls, and service policies.
  • Enhanced observability and audit readiness: Increased visibility into platform activity enables integration with your Google Cloud logging, monitoring, and audit workflows to support compliance requirements.
  • GCP-native security and governance enforcement: Apply your existing GCP IAM policies, VPC network controls, firewall rules, and governance guardrails directly to Superblocks.
  • Leverage Google Cloud committed spend programs: All infrastructure resources run in your Google Cloud account and can count toward your existing Google Cloud committed use discounts and enterprise agreements.

​
Managed service model

In GCP Cloud-Prem, Superblocks is responsible for:
  • Delivering regular platform updates and feature enhancements
  • Managing upgrades
  • Ensuring release compatibility, stability, and reliability
  • Providing operational support and incident response
All upgrades are planned, executed, and supported by Superblocks. This ensures Cloud-Prem environments remain secure, supported, and current, without requiring customers to plan, test, or operate upgrades themselves. Customers retain control over cloud-level access, security policies, deployment environments, and AI execution boundaries, while Superblocks manages the ongoing operation and lifecycle of the platform.
