If you are in the cloud, you are going to need a team that understands cloud networking, storage, deployment, security etc. You will need enough people to maintain support rotations and survive normal churn. It seems like many people/organizations belived that they would be rid of the whole "operations problem" once they shifted all their workloads from on-prem to cloud. They believed that they paid a full team for running cables and replacing broken fans/hard drives/PSU:s, when that aspect of on-prem is a tiny (but non-zero) amount of work.
