A manufacturing company in Pune runs its ERP on servers installed in its own data centre, and its IT team handles all upgrades, patches and hardware maintenance. Which ERP deployment model does this describe?

This is an on-premise deployment, because the ERP is installed on the company's own servers and its internal IT team is responsible for upgrades, patches and hardware. In cloud or hosted models, a vendor or third party would carry that responsibility.

  2. BPublic cloud SaaS deployment
  3. CHybrid deployment with vendor-hosted modules
  4. DManaged hosting by a third-party provider

Explanation

When the software runs on the company's own servers and its own staff maintain hardware and patches, it is an on-premise deployment. In SaaS the vendor hosts and maintains the application, and in managed hosting a third party operates the infrastructure. Neither matches the scenario.
