Automated virtual premised server installation and services configuration are provided. Aspects provide a system, method, and computer readable storage device that enable aspects of a virtual premised server-on-demand (VPSoD) service to provide a technical improvement to premised server installation, support, and operation. The VPSoD service provides the capability of a consumer to subscribe to one or more premised server servers, and those servers and associated services are automatically installed on a remote virtual instance of a premised server and automatically configured with minimal user input. A secure communication tunnel is configured between the consumer's local network and the virtual premised server for enabling services installed on the virtual premised server to communicate on the local network and behave as if the virtual premised server is connect into the network.
