In case my point wasn't clear - for many situations AWS is FASTER in terms of development, and once you've built your app on AWS it can be painful to switch to an on-prem solution and rebuild on the "easy" 10GB/s EBS. And by the time you are done dealing with add-in cards / driver bugs etc...

It sounds like the ease of using AWS means the technical staff capability has atrophied. If you're doing on prem all the time it isn't an issue. Of course you have to have the scale to have a tech staff, including not losing critical capability when someone leaves.
On prem cloud is still mayhem, VMWare is very very bad, Openstack is baroque. Moving anything from AWS or Azure to on prem cloud would be very frustrating.
