      High-Level Architecture

      The architecture of the customer-hosted deployment is similar to the Platform fully hosted by PlainID and includes the:

      • Policy Administration Point (PAP) with all its services.
        • The PAP component uses a Postgres DB as its main storage.
      • Policy Authorization Agent (PAA) with the runtime authorization decision engine (PDP).
      • Policy Decision Point PDP
        • The PDP uses REDIS as storage.

      In the Hybrid Agent deployment, you will need to make your Postgres and REDIS managed services available for the PlainID Platform.
