Pega Cloud is built on Pega's SmartBPM® architecture and Pega's state of the art cloud infrastructure.
Other than physical location, there's no difference between the servers in Pega Cloud and the servers running in your datacenter.
Security on Pega Cloud
Pega Cloud is secure. Applications built on Pega Cloud are completely isolated from other customers. Some cloud offerings make you share resources and even databases with other companies. Not Pega Cloud.
Businesses with sensitive data can communicate with the Pega Cloud Secure Channel (VPN or HTTPS). Legacy backend systems can be fully integrated with your applications through the encrypted tunnel created by the VPN.
All editions of Pega Cloud can meet the requirements of data privacy regulations such as HIPAA, HITECH and PCI DSS.
Pega Cloud is reliable. Pega Cloud infrastructure comes with a 99.95% uptime SLA.
All of your data is redundantly mirrored across several servers in real time to prevent data loss. Nightly backups are stored in at least three geographically-distributed datacenters that use different tier-1 carriers, power grids, and onsite backup generators to ensure business continuity.
Pega Cloud is protected. Pega Cloud implements automatic countermeasures against several types of network attacks, including port scanning, IP spoofing, and denial of service attacks. It includes a fully-featured firewall to prevent unauthorized access.
Pega Cloud also integrates with your existing identity management solution for single sign-on — no coding required.
Integration on Pega Cloud
Often, business applications have to exchange messages with legacy systems and pull data from sources you house in your datacenter. Pegas integrates with backend systems through web services such as SOAP, .NET, JMS, MQ Messaging, and more.
Pega also integrates with enterprise identity management solutions like LDAP for single sign-on, allowing you to maintain centralized control of identity management.
Pega Cloud Secure Channel (VPN or HTTPS) allows tunneling of the full network stack from your datacenter to the cloud. Your new Pega Cloud infrastructure can be a truly seamless, scalable addition to your existing datacenter.
Policy Compliance on Pega Cloud
Pega's clients are predominantly large banks, insurance companies and healthcare firms. In other words, businesses with the most stringent privacy and data protection requirements. With this in mind Pega has ensured that its cloud offerings provide the secure infrastructure necessary to enable our customers to comply with global privacy and data protection regulations. Pega's cloud infrastructure provider has successfully passed a SAS70 Type II audit, and Pega's website has security and site authenticity accreditations. Pega Cloud will ensure you meet or exceed your regulatory compliance requirements.
