Its the other way around. How do you think all businesses moved to the cloud in the first place?
- danpalmer 9mo agoMy point is that at the point of moving, or creating a new deployment, it's perfectly reasonable to say "how do we get off the cloud if it goes badly", yet no one says "how do we get onto a cloud if managing a datacenter sucks". The cloud providers win business with at least some hint of offboarding support, but on-prem doesn't have that same incentive.
