@petrillic Granted, many companies would also balk if they were confronted with the full bill for self-hosting a given application.
I feel like this falls into the common trap of looking for technical fixes for social problems, where it should be questions like “will the cloud allow you to tighten feedback loops?” or “does the cloud reduce conflicting organizational incentives?”
@petrillic Also how many organizations will treat this as no big deal. I've lost count of the number of times someone has done something like compare AWS RDS or S3 with the assumption that their on-premise staff are free and it's like … shouldn't you know how much time they spend supporting your existing systems? It seems like an important detail.
