Data on primises vs. cloud

Data storage options include on-premises and cloud solutions.

On-premises storage involves storing data on physical servers within an organization’s datacenter, providing full control but requiring significant investment. Cloud storage, on the other hand, offers scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness, with data stored on remote servers maintained by a third-party provider.

Accessibility from any location and collaboration benefits make cloud storage ideal for remote work environments, but organizations must consider data security and compliance regulations when selecting a provider.
