Yeah... I don't agree at all with their conclusions about running your own stuff "not that complicated". Sure, it is not "that complicated" for basic stuff, simple sites, hobby projects or overall quick'n dirty solutions because you're under a budget, as with everything. Doing infrastructure properly, with SLAs and a very high level of availability and redundancy (both in systems, and in people with the know-how) is incredibly complicated in my opinion. I bet what they're going to save on the the Cloud provider is going to be spent (and probably even more) in salaries, if they keep the same levels of service. Specially true considering they pay pretty good salaries.
