State replication is well understood - if one's system(s) allow for data to travel outside of a 'cloud' (network resource), then there needs to be a compelling reason. Not saying that 100% of systems can be pushed up to a cloud - just having a hard time thinking of a particular use case at the moment.
Even banks are moving from vendor managed solutions to cloud based in-house supported software of late, and this group is the most difficult to change their ways (lot-o-hoops).
I do agree with you that many biz/org's might pay for a system and fail to understand the costs around maintaining/future upgrading - that's a management issue and should be dealt with via accountability/consequences.
- klodolph 7y agoAgreed that people should be held accountable but there is not a great process for this. Usually the fallout from bad policies for backups / continuity are down to a roll of the dice. Too many of the people in charge are willing to roll the dice, and too many will understaff IT and then not listen.
