As someone in the ISP/hosting business, i can tell you that there are plenty of companies incapable of sufficiently managing actual servers. For their own safety it’s probably better to let someone else manage it for them (despite getting ripped off then)
I’d like to take the stance that: If you can’t manage your own data, don’t start a business. But that seems like a shaky foundation to plant a flag, so I will instead say, “I hate Oracle.”
If they cannot manage their own infrastructure, they also don’t know what infrastructure is needed for their services. And they won’t even have the opportunity to learn anymore.
Secondly, if you buy external services, you need to consider improving connectivity.
I mean, you can still work on your on-premises servers, if your internet connection fails. You cannot, if you outsourced essentials parts.
You can install serverless frameworks on your server though. Best of both worlds

It’s why you hire someone else to do it, like a network consultancy.
I agree, and If you can’t manage your own health, don’t be alive, which is why the world should consist 100% of medical doctors.

You cannot work on your on-premises servers if you shit the bed with your server management.
(Just playing devil’s advocate)
True.
But one thing you control, the other you don’t.
Not every business has a need to run their own data center, and I say this as a guy who used to run a data center.
Yes but the biggest benefit of serverless compute is not having to maintain a server and only maintaining your code.
