On-premise means running a system on servers inside your own facility rather than in an external cloud, so the data never leaves the company.
The primary reason is data control. Process conditions, drawings and quality history are core assets, and customer contracts frequently prohibit taking them outside.
The second reason is network dependence. Production must continue when the internet does not. A line stopped because a work order could not be fetched is unacceptable, so systems on the critical path are safer on site.
The trade is that servers, backups and security patching become your responsibility. A hybrid — execution on premises, analytics and reporting in the cloud — is increasingly common.
It is a question of conditions, not superiority. Data export restrictions, network reliability and whether you have people to operate servers decide it. Splitting execution on site from analytics in the cloud is also common.

What IYULAB provides in this area.
Questions that come up when evaluating On-Premise.
No. A remote access path aligned to your security policy is provided, typically logged and opened only when needed.
It depends on scale. Existing internal server capacity is often sufficient, and small deployments can run on a compact industrial server.
Yes, if portability is considered at design time. The key is not binding data structures and integrations tightly to one environment.
A look at your equipment and current workflow is usually enough to scope it.
