Re: The "Cloud" is great until it's not
On the other hand, on premises loads on a service are rarely quite as much as loads on a cloud-hosted service, so fewer load-related problems are likely to occur.
On the other hand (I'm running out of hands), a cloud service provider may well have more in-house expertise. Or less!
There's pros and cons for both. Of course if you're stuck with a PHB who just follows fashion, you're fucked in cloud or on premises.
