Distribution (the internet) and open source disrupted that business out of existence.

I think we need something like that for the cloud. Pay an interchangeable cloud provider a monthly pittance, and they host your choice of services as turnkey solutions. No more centralization of data, and no more paying $5/mo for a service wrapper around some FOSS CLI tool.

Reality check, that business is pretty much alive in Fortune 500, and I work mostly with such products.
