This is just a private Cloud type platform. Private Clouds are perfectly normal.

Really? Cloud implies it's ephemeral, typically by outsourcing to someone else.

I'm not sure about that. Cloud can involve virtualized resources that can be provisioned or deprovisioned dynamically based on demand but, it doesn't necessarily imply that the software / data in the cloud is ephemeral. Both can be designed to be persistent and durable, with long-term storage and retention. I think you're confusing an accident for an essence.

No, that is wrong. Have you ever heard of Azure Stack Hub? It’s an Edge Cloud. You manage it yourself

Having just gone through certifications for 2 of the 3 big providers, the people who are known for providing cloud services think private clouds are a thing.
