On the premise

Hi.

I am translating an article about "cloud computing" and I ran into this paragraph, but I could not understand what "to have it on the premise" means . Would any one help ?

With IP and SIP in place, it can be as easy to have the PBX
in the cloud as it is to have it on the premise.

In computing, the expression 'on-premise' means something like 'local' or 'locally'.
