For a company “on-prem” might not mean the same as “local”. You might run them in your company data center or in a colocated server (rented space in a data center). In either of those cases, the data center might be physically close to you, but it could be on a different continent.
“On-prem” implies that the company has physical access/control of the server.
Ah okay thank you for clearing that up for me. Makes me feel a bit less crazy now haha it was a bit off-putting with the amount of times “on-prem” was used here!

“On-prem” is the Enterprise IT antonym term of “cloud”, as in public cloud, aka hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI).
