Return to On-premises software

“On-prem” is another way of stating “on the premises of a controlled IT environment that is not cloud-based.” This term is used to qualify an IT resource as an alternative to “cloud-based.” An IT resource that is on-premise cannot be cloud-based, and vice-versa.

Note the following key points:

• An on-premise IT resource can access and interact with a cloud-based IT resource.

• An on-premise IT resource can be moved to a cloud, thereby changing it to a cloud-based IT resource.

• Redundant deployments of an IT resource can exist in both on-premise and cloudbased environments.

Snippet from Wikipedia: On-premises software

On-premises software (abbreviated to on-prem, and often written as "on-premise") is installed and runs on computers on the premises of the person or organization using the software, rather than at a remote facility such as a server farm or cloud. On-premises software is sometimes referred to as "shrinkwrap" software, and off-premises software is commonly called "software as a service" ("SaaS") or "cloud computing".

The software consists of database and modules that are combined to particularly serve the unique needs of the large organizations regarding the automation of corporate-wide business system and its functions.
