Benefits from QGA Entreprise Server installed locally versus QGA server on the cloud.

@Patric_Nordstrom : 

1) What are the advantages of having QGA server installed locally? 

2) Are there any differences regarding the functionalities  between QGA Cloud and on-premise ?

Thank you in advance.

1 advantage can be that data will stay local and won’t get transported for calculations to Qlik Server
Other advantage can be performance

I think cloud version has GEO operations and on premise this is not possible at the moment, unless you create your own kubernetes qlik cloud

Perhaps obvious, with an on-prem server there is on need for internet access.

Cloud has some usage limits for route calculations and data size.

Note, the sat imagery is always served from cloud.

Thanks,
