Office 365 data
Hi there,
The answer to this is to use the on-premises versions of the Microsoft products that are available to you if you want to host this yourself in your own comms room or data centers.
Office 365 is hosted in Microsoft Data Centers in standard or dedicated environments for customers. There is some fluidity like others have stated where Hybrid models allow on-premises applications to utilise the cloud such as Exchange Hybrid, Skype for Business Hybird, SharePoint Hybrid, with ancillary support with functions such as AADConnect for directory syncronisation and hybrid Azure AD join - but there isn't the solution for what you are looking for.
By all means utilise these hybrid modes and you can even keep file server data on-premises and protected with Azure Information Protection utilising the AIP scanner, and you can even utilise Intune to protect on-premises Exchange. There's also functionality in certain Office 365 licensing where you get on-premises CALs as part of the licensing arrangements.
But to re-iterate; what you are asking in your specific scenario question isn't possible. You can't deploy Office 365 to your own hardware in your own location.
Take care,
Oliver
