I absolutely understand why in-house IT and dev folks like it: It literally removes the ability for budgeting people to tell them no. And the cost of new uses starts small and is granular, so by the time finance folks see it, it's already done and a critical component and no longer optional.
It literally removes agency from financial folks and gives it to tech people.
- claaams 5y agoThis is good and bad. It's good if you have competent tech staff. Right now my org is battling for basic resources like gsuite and okta licenses for their new hires because the CFO is complaining. It's absurd.
- lordlimecat 5y agoIf you have competent tech staff you can inhouse it on any of a dozen hypervisors for roughly the capital cost you would spend in 6 months on cloud. Every year on the cloud can roughly cover the expense for double that capacity deployed on prem. Complaints of "operational costs" generally assume a woefully incompetent staff.
