This is a good thing to note. You can run into problems when:
1. You are using somebody else for infrastructure and that infrastructure changes/goes away/is suddenly more expensive. Witness Amazon AWS (which we're using), Google Maps, etc.
2. Your benefactor suddenly decides to compete with you. That happened to a company named Outlooksoft earlier last year when Microsoft decided to get into the budgeting and planning business. Outlooksoft had based their product 100% on a Microsoft infrastructure. They had to scramble to add support for other databases and G/Ls.
