We have a partnership with IBM and we are consumers also. The solution is on-premises. There are a lot of reasons the adoption was not onto the cloud. There's a lot of cost angular attached to it. All the events would be correlated and would be passed on and then there would be bandwidth constraints. Events that get generated in these data centers have a huge chunk of data. Passing that on that to the cloud for security concerns and also for cost-related issues would be too much, and therefore, the reason it is deployed for the on-prem solution is to protect data and to save on costs. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.
