In my current company (a large bank), our team (~50 people) is trying to leave the on-premise infrastructure and move to the cloud because the on-perm stuff is managed in such a way that it's hard for us to acomplish anything. It will probably cost a lot more to use the cloud, but we're gladly willing to pay for it if we can shed the bureucracy this way. I've read that in medieval times, kings have sometimes abandoned their castles for new ones after too much fecies were accumulated in them (as people were shitting wherever back then). I feel a strong parallel in this story to our situation.
