As data privacy, security, and regulatory compliance become more important, multitenant SaaS gets tricky. Many enterprises need solutions that provide more comprehensive control over their data, but fully on-premises software has limitations. A hybrid approach, dubbed "multi-prem," brings cloud native technologies to a company-controlled infrastructure, offering some of the advantages of on-premises deployment along with the scalability of cloud native applications.

The demand for on-premises software remains enormous and continues to grow. A hybrid approach called multi-prem is emerging, offering some of the advantages of on-premises deployment along with the scalability of cloud-native applications. This model relies on orchestrated containers and the DevOps software development life cycle to manage application installation, maintenance, upgrades, and operations.

Containerized architecture and software development pipelines bring automation, uniformity, scalability, and observability to software deployment and management. This technique enables the packaging of cloud-native applications for multiple customer environments, including on-premises, private clouds, and air-gapped servers. With this model, enterprise IT teams can stop struggling to manually operate legacy applications and instead can partner with in-house engineering teams to operate a platform as a whole that helps manage applications for them.

This report is for independent software vendors who want to learn how Kubernetes and other cloud-native technologies are changing on-premises software delivery and helping to alleviate some of the challenges of packaging and deploying applications to diverse environments.
