What is the difference between On Premise and On Premises?

I've been using the term dynamics 365 on premise. However, if you google it, there are two terms like on premise, on premises.

What are the differences between them? What is the correct term?

    Hi Woo-Seok,

    The difference is an 's' character.

    RE: What is the difference between On Premise and On Premises?

    Until a couple of years ago the Microsoft community seemed universally to refer to implementations as 'On Premise' when they should have used the expression 'On Premises': this is because a 'premise' is a "proposition from which another is inferred or follows as a conclusion" and not a site or location ('premises'). At some point Microsoft updated all its documentation within a short time to use the correct term. I have no idea what caused such a rapid and universal response to this seemingly trivial issue within Microsoft, but you do still hear people referring to 'On Premise' as it's hard to change old habits.
