Rebels against SaaS - On‑premises is here to stay
summary
Dataiku explains why many enterprise customers still need on-premises deployments and describes building an installable server that runs inside customer datacenters or cloud accounts rather than offering pure SaaS. It addresses problems like slow release cycles, inability to debug remotely, excessive logs, and huge environment variability by using a semi-monolithic deployable server, managed VM templates, heavy diagnostics archives, conservative compatibility rules, and automated test matrices to reduce variability and speed adoption.
