Teams usually involved
Infrastructure teams, security reviewers, operations owners, and programme sponsors assessing hosting and control tradeoffs.
Platform
Dedicated Cloud
Dedicated cloud fits institutions that want managed hosting with clearer infrastructure separation, defined operating boundaries, and a review path before rollout decisions are made.

When It Fits
Use dedicated cloud when the institution wants managed hosting with a separate environment and defined operating boundaries.
Dedicated cloud is usually considered when an institution wants managed infrastructure but does not want to share the same operating boundary as a broader pooled environment.
The discussion is usually about where the environment runs, who manages which layer, what control evidence is required, and how the deployment fits residency, security, and operational review.
What SelamNow reviews
Environment boundaries, operating responsibilities, deployment sequencing, support expectations, and the control model around the hosted setup.
What to send first
Institution type, hosting constraints, residency requirements, expected scale, and the deployment questions that need an early answer.
Review Areas
The first review should settle boundaries before product rollout starts.
Hosting boundary
Clarify where the environment runs, what is dedicated to the institution, and what sits under managed platform operations.
Control responsibility
Define which controls remain with the institution and which sit with the managed operating model, including access, audit, support, and change handling.
Rollout sequence
Agree the environment timeline, testing steps, onboarding path, and the point at which production readiness can be assessed.
Dedicated cloud is still a governed rollout decision. The objective is not just hosting choice. The objective is a deployable operating model the institution can review and approve.
Next step
Review dedicated-cloud fit with the right deployment details.
Send the hosting requirements, institution context, and control questions that need to be resolved before rollout planning moves forward.
