# Hybrid cloud deployment

> Deploy the data plane in your cloud environment

Mage Pro’s hybrid deployment architecture splits the control plane and the data place components across environments. The control plane is maintained in Mage’s cloud environment while the data processed in the data plane never leaves your cloud infrastructure.
