What is the difference between on-premise and private cloud DMS?

The difference between on-premise and private cloud DMS is who manages the infrastructure.

• On-premise DMS is hosted and managed entirely by the firm on its own servers
• Private cloud DMS is hosted on dedicated infrastructure managed by a third-party provider

Both models provide high levels of data control, but private cloud reduces the need for in-house server management.
Some vendors offer private cloud as a middle-ground between on-premise and public cloud.
