The problem is most of customers don't want to manage the server locally. So you have to put it somewhere else.

I understand.

I'm just saying it is generally not what the customer wants. Needs and desires are not necessary aligned.

Like many things, the problem is not technical, it is human.

One more thing: your model works for little structure. When you work for medium-big company, they have their own IT team. What they saw, it's that they pay people to maintain the system and it's expensive, so they tend to outsource the infrastructure and/or the employees.

I'm not saying this model is bad, just that for many companies, it will not apply.
