Architecture
ServiceNow runs a proprietary SaaS platform across hyperscaler regions on AWS, Azure, and GCP, plus sovereign-cloud deployments, with a custom database layer (RaptorDB on PostgreSQL) replacing MariaDB/MySQL for most instances.[7][8] Its architecture is tightly integrated with NVIDIA NeMo microservices and GPU infrastructure for training and inference of its Apriel/Nemotron family of open models, while exposing workflow, observability, and discovery services over these multi-cloud foundations.[2][4][5][8]
