Save yourself the money & the hassle - build an all-cloud IT infrastructure!

I also often feel these discussions don't always take into fact how DR will work, or specifically where will you fall in your hosted providers' priority during their outage. DR of course isn't a conversation everyone will think about based on size of course(though they should).
-
@dariena regardless of how services are provided; DR needs to be a part of the conversation.

Its often an added cost that isn't factored into these cloud is cheaper sales talks...

@oksana Sounds like somebody has been drinking the "LAN-less IT" juice

Cloud encourages LANless, but LANless is equally doable with and without cloud. And many clouds, especially Azure, push LAN-based even when cloud.

I'd absolutely dispute the statement that folks don't think about backup when data is stored onprem.
In addition... my favored side? I'd say I don't prefer either, simply that each is looked at in a more encompassing view in terms of what's involved in costs.

I think we all have very opposite experiences. Including threads from the last two days. This is something so common, while always shocking, it's a shock we get continuously.

Right, there are loads of factors not factored in anywhere. I think cloud tends to get attention because it's the popular new thing and people just assume that there must be a good reason for it, and they leap to "it must be cheaper" as that is the thing that they understand.
-
@jaredbusch Some people. Come on now.

@scottalanmiller Right and they leap at that without a full picture, that's all I was admittedly trying to say.
