On-premise is the usual choice for banks, government, healthcare and factories with strict data or network rules.

- **Control.** Your storage, backups, access rules and internal systems.
- **Cost model.** Often a one-time licence instead of a monthly subscription.
- **Responsibility.** Your team runs the server, updates and backups.
