You're moving off cloud to cut costs, regain control, and meet sovereignty requirements. But you shouldn't have to sacrifice automation, observability, or operational efficiency.
smartNOC brings hyperscaler-grade automation to your infrastructure — without the lock-in.
After a decade of "cloud-first" mandates, enterprises are realizing that public cloud isn't always the best answer. Repatriation is accelerating across industries as companies rediscover the benefits of owning their infrastructure.
Cloud bills that grew 40% year-over-year. Egress fees. Reserved instances that don't match usage. Repatriation can cut infrastructure costs by 50-70% for stable workloads.
GDPR, CCPA, and industry regulations make data residency non-negotiable. On-prem means you control where data lives and who can access it.
Latency-sensitive workloads suffer in shared cloud environments. Your hardware, your network, predictable performance.
No more vendor lock-in. No forced upgrades. No surprise deprecations. Your infrastructure runs on your timeline.
Shared responsibility model means shared risk. On-prem with zero-trust architecture gives you full security control.
CapEx is predictable. Cloud OpEx isn't. For mature workloads, owned infrastructure has better unit economics.
The cloud spoiled you (in good ways):
Going back to manual infrastructure management is not an option.
You need cloud-grade automation without the cloud:
This is what smartNOC delivers.
smartNOC was built to solve exactly this problem: how do you operate infrastructure at cloud scale without cloud lock-in?
Result: Cloud-grade operations without cloud-grade costs or vendor lock-in.
The Problem: Paying cloud prices for workloads with predictable, constant load.
The Solution: Repatriate to owned hardware. smartNOC handles provisioning, patching, and monitoring at a fraction of cloud costs.
The Problem: Egress fees killing your margins. Data movement costs more than compute.
The Solution: Keep data on-prem. smartNOC's service dependency mapping ensures storage and compute stay co-located.
The Problem: Compliance requirements demand data residency and control that cloud can't guarantee.
The Solution: On-prem with continuous compliance. smartNOC automates evidence collection for NIST, ISO, SOC2.
The Problem: Need burst capacity but want core workloads on-prem.
The Solution: smartNOC manages both. Same automation, same security model, whether on your hardware or in the cloud.
The Problem: Distributed edge nodes plus centralized core. Cloud doesn't work well for either.
The Solution: smartNOC was built for distributed infrastructure. Thousands of edge nodes, unified management.
The Problem: Cloud bills growing faster than revenue.
The Solution: Move stable workloads to owned infrastructure. smartNOC ensures you don't trade cost savings for operational chaos.
Industry data shows repatriation can deliver 50-70% cost savings for steady-state workloads. Here's what that looks like:
Total: $2.475M
Total: $1.06M
Savings: $1.415M over 3 years (57% reduction)
And that's before accounting for the value of data sovereignty, performance improvements, and eliminated vendor lock-in.
You don't have to repatriate everything at once. smartNOC supports a phased approach:
smartNOC manages both environments with the same automation, security, and compliance model.
Most infrastructure tools assume you're either all-in on cloud or happy with manual on-prem ops. smartNOC was designed for the middle ground: organizations that want control without operational burden.
Your hardware. Your datacenter. Your cloud provider (if hybrid). smartNOC adapts to your infrastructure, not the other way around.
You didn't leave cloud to babysit servers. smartNOC automates provisioning, patching, monitoring, and remediation.
Zero-trust architecture, mTLS everywhere, immutable infrastructure. Security controls enforced in the platform, not bolted on.
Continuous evidence collection. Control validation. Audit trails. Meet NIST, ISO, SOC2 requirements without manual work.
Designed for distributed infrastructure. Thousands of nodes, multiple sites, unified management.
Real-time awareness, not just visibility. The system understands what's running and can act autonomously.
Whether you're planning a full migration or testing the waters with a pilot, we can help you repatriate smartly.
