Has anyone moved from cloud-hosted PRA instance to on-prem virtual or physical appliance ? or vice-versa. Was there any significant difference noticed on remote access session performance - jump clients , RDP using JumPoint. I know many factors will impact this but lets say PRA user and remote server both are on-prem and PRA appliance is moved from cloud to on-prem. Theoretically, there should be performance improvement. Trying to see if this is worth the time and effort , if someone has already done it :-)

Hello ​@bt101 - We have had many many customers move from OnPrem to Cloud hosted, and I belive our Sales team can provide some examples and case studies from other customers who have moved over, from my understanding.


@bt101 I think you are forgeting that a Cloud PRA needs a onprem Jumpoint, so logically its already on its better perfomance, the only diference would be the internet communication, unless your jumpoint is on a limited network then you already have the best you could.

Now, if you are talking about a Appliance that is Azure/AWS and its communicating with your jumpoint/RDP/Jump Clients with a VPN or VPC, then, yes, you could potencially have a better perfomance moving to a onprem Hyper-v/Vmware, as the latency would be basically zero.


I recommend you talk with you account manage to get you a POC of PRA on you onprem enviroment before doing the migration, if you are really interested in this scenario.


Hi ​@Paulo144 I know the jumpoint (at least in this case) needs to be on-prem but question is more about the additional hop that is the PRA appliance. Depending on the appliance’s location on-prem or cloud , there will definitely be a difference. 
Thanks, I will do a PoC . I was checking to see if any users who have actually moved their production instances and noticed significant performance improvements
