Mid-Funnel Analysis
On-Prem vs Cloud AI
The decision hinges on control, governance, and residency. On-prem AI delivers deterministic control; cloud AI trades that control for convenience.
Residency Control
On-Prem: Full locality enforcement and data sovereignty.
Cloud: Dependent on provider residency guarantees.
Latency and Availability
On-Prem: Deterministic latency with local inference.
Cloud: Variable latency and dependency risk.
Governance
On-Prem: Controlled release and audit readiness.
Cloud: Governance tied to vendor policies.
Operational Cost
On-Prem: Predictable cost with owned capacity.
Cloud: Variable cost tied to vendor pricing.
