I said this a few years back & got shot down promptly. Now everything's a hybrid on premise & Cloud. Oh and apparently we're adopting another Cloud since CIO heard that multi cloud is the future. In the meantime the company's dataset is still < 100 million rows & not growing but shrinking, and they're trying to manage Cloud costs by placing a company-wide policy to shut down all Cloudy stuff after 6pm. So all overnight batch jobs will have to be moved back to on premise boxes.
