Partly due to cost-benefit. I am hopeful that there is such a large mass of skilled labour or labour that can be skilled (so many graduates these days), that we can give them jobs and avoid having everything tech infrastructure related being pushed off to the big cloud vendors. As another comment replying to you mentioned, firms hire in-house accountants, lawyers, etc. --> If the cost of tech employees becomes favourable vs. outsourcing to the cloud, then why not internalise? Its a big risk to put all your eggs in somebody else's hands. With in-house tech, you have somewhat more control. My 2c.
