Every IT shop I've ever interacted with has a sizable on-prem footprint. And an even larger self-managed footprint if we include things that are run in the cloud but are managed by the IT shop itself (i.e. Red Hat OpenShift on AWS, HashiCorp Vault in Azure, GitLab in Alibaba, etc). So I think we've yet to see the initial demise of that paradigm.
Even if the trend is that most Enterprises are moving towards SaaS and PaaS products, I think we still have a long way to go until the majority of IT infrastructure is managed by a third-party.
