The thing about cloud is that you pay for what you use. That can also be an issue too because if you leave servers you don’t use on the weekend or scale a bit more than you wanted, well, you pay for all of that. If it’s on-prem, then you’ve already paid for it. You’re not going to need to optimize any of those.

There’s the “FinOps” movement where we’re spending time trying to optimize cloud costs as much as we can.

There’s no right answer to me, completely depends on your company make up and all that.
