I agree that most startups need to get an MVP out the door as soon as possible which leads to clouds. I think hybrid cloud will be the way to go long term.
If you think about it, on one side we have things like AWS and others where devops and "make running your own infra at scale easy" like docker and k8s. On prem in some form isn't going anywhere. What WILL be interesting are the plays like say: convox where you can manage a cloud like you would an on prem openstack/k8s deployment.
