The sad reality is probably not. I personally would prefer organizations to own their hardware as in the early age of internet. It was meant to be decentralized. However in the last 2 decades centralization has prevailed. I think it is sad because look at the CrowdStrike incident earlier this week. Or outages in AWS, cloudflare etc. These are examples why decentralization would give people/organizations power and control. This mentality of making it “someone else’s problem” with outsourcing is a fairy tale. In the end your business is at risk. Let alone the overhead and inefficiencies. Perhaps another analogy: if one eats out every day and never learnt how to cook a meal themselves. When the situation presents itself there is no cook around. One would probably starve or resort to simple food sources like whole fruits.
