Is Networker now cloud only?
As an example I go to the dell networker site, I go to the "forum" link , and it places me in "Dell Community->Enterprise Products->Cloud->Networker
..or perhaps it is just hiding the on-prem version out of site?
I have used the product since legato days but moved out of backup. I am now running IT for a charity and networker was my first choice the backup solution.
1) Is it available on prem?
If so, 2) Are the cost of licences lined to the amount of data you backup (please say no).

I don't think anyone actually understands that particular reasoning from Dell to put it underneath the "cloud" banner?Neither for example does not making Data Domain part of the DPS suite or giving new kid on the block PPDM a separate status of sorts (which might be due to having a different release schedule compared to the DPS suite offerings)?
Still as before you can run a NW backup server on physical or virtualized hardware (only linux and windows for years for now for the backup server), on-prem but also in the cloud. It has even been made easier by also offering NW NVE (virtual edition with Suse linux under the hood and (still) strongly based on the OS approach from Avamar), an appliance provided by Dell that you can deploy either virtualized or in the supported cloud through their respective marketplace.
