@geerlingguy Agreed. Biz I managed for 3 years was all on-prem with redundancy, a local spares stock and 2 or 4 hr call-out for critical outages not fixable from spares. Cost was reasonable. Our only major outage was an HP battery-backed cache controller that took itself offline due to a spurious cache confidence error. We had the board swapped and the server + storage array back online in 12 mins. My successor moved many systems into Cloud and suffered the uptime and cost consequences.
