planAnalytics Cloud Solution

planAnalytics uses an extremely powerful and secure cloud-based architecture. Key data is gathered by a batch processing and data anonymization module which resides within your data center and behind your firewall. It is then stripped of private information such as names, employee IDs, etc., ('PI') and sent to the FOM calculation engine residing in an Amazon Web Services cloud ('AWS'). Processing and calculations occur in the cloud in realtime and are returned to your web application where it is re-combined with the stored PI and presented within your plan sponsor portal's web application.

planAnalytics Cloud will help you avoid upfront infrastructure costs, so that you can focus on projects that differentiate your businesses instead of on IT infrastructure.

Architecture at a Glance

planAnalytics cloud provides ubiquitous, on-demand access to plan sponsor reporting content.


Private Information

What's private? That's up to you...

  • You designate and control what is considered 'Private Information.'
  • PI stays within your data center and firewall.
  • PI never sent to the cloud. Instead, anonymous 'placeholder' data sent in its place.
