“Microsoft said we have to do this so we have to” is a lot of internal barriers to technical change.

At least, that's what I see working in an public sector enterprise shop whose cloud transition started as involving a break from being a solid and conservative narrow Microsoft shop which is currently backsliding as that transition broadens and innovators at all levels (including the CTO that spearheaded it, who is departing for a CIO gig) move on or are marginalized.

I sympathize, but what is the obstacle standing in the way of "if it's on Azure why don't we just use it?"

That's often a moderately straightforward discussion.
