I don’t even want to hear an argument for moving back on prem with how badly Broadcom/VMware ripped our eyes out this year. 350% increase over 2 years ago, and I still have to buy the hardware, secure it in a room, power it, buy redundant Internet and networking equipment, get a backup facility, buy and test a generator/UPS, and condition the damn air. Oh then every few years we have to switch out all the hardware when it stops getting vendor support.
At least everyone was all in the same boat today, and we all know what was broken.

Moving to Nutanix soon. Love their product. Proxmox looks good on paper too, just not mature enough in the enterprise to bet my paycheck on it.
Cloud infrastructure is expensive.
Lucky me needs Proxmox only for self-hosting and loves it :)
