On-Prem is back but it isn’t coming back the way it used to be
We’ve been thinking about on-prem wrong. We see two emerging trends related to on-premises software.
On-prem is now in the cloud. Software vendors are now offering cloud-first versions of on-prem that use cloud-native features. New terms emerging with this trend include “Containerized On-Prem” and “Bring Your Own Cloud” (BYOC).
Enterprises that pushed hard for SaaS first are re-evaluating SaaS deployment models in four use cases: operational resilience, heavy data in play, privacy and control, and privileged access.
