Managed private cloud for clinic software is a deployment model where your clinic's data runs on dedicated cloud infrastructure — isolated from all other tenants at the network, compute, and storage level. Unlike a standard SaaS clinic platform where all clinics share the same database cluster, a private cloud deployment gives your clinic its own database instance, its own encryption keys, its own network boundaries, and its own compliance audit trail. The infrastructure is managed by the software vendor — you get the isolation of on-premise without the IT overhead.
| Dimension | Shared SaaS | Managed Private Cloud | On-Premise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Data isolation | Logical (row-level in shared DB) | Physical (dedicated DB instance) | Physical (your server) |
| Indian data residency | Depends on vendor | ✅ Guaranteed | ✅ Guaranteed (your site) |
| IT requirement | Zero | Zero (vendor-managed) | High (dedicated IT staff) |
| Uptime SLA | Shared pool SLA | Dedicated SLA (99.9%+) | Depends on your hardware |
| Cost structure | Per-clinic subscription | Per-clinic + infrastructure premium | Perpetual licence + hardware + IT |
| Encryption keys | Vendor-managed | Customer-managed keys option | Your responsibility |
| DPDPA fit | Good for most clinics | Best for significant data fiduciaries | Good (data never leaves premises) |
Under DPDPA 2023, MeitY will designate certain organisations as "significant data fiduciaries" based on volume of personal data processed, sensitivity of data, and risk to data principals. IVF clinic chains and multi-speciality hospital networks processing health data at scale will likely qualify. Significant data fiduciaries face additional obligations including data localisation (data must remain in India), data protection impact assessments, and a mandatory Data Protection Officer. A managed private cloud deployment on Indian infrastructure directly satisfies the data localisation requirement.
Managed private cloud for clinic software typically costs 2–4x the standard SaaS subscription, reflecting dedicated infrastructure. CuraVerto Plus starts at ₹50,000/year for single-clinic private cloud. This compares to ₹4–12 lakh for equivalent on-premise infrastructure (hardware, IT support, maintenance) over a 5-year window.
CuraVerto Plus includes a dedicated private cloud deployment on Indian infrastructure — physically isolated, DPDPA-ready, and managed so your IT team stays focused on clinical systems.
