This is a very typical argument CIOs faced when transitioning storage to cloud. The job threat to storage admins created a lot of FUD and slowed many migrations. Unfortunately, this happened with DB, storage, compute and software.

I wonder if there is a middle ground here where you can have a proxy service that can be run locally to augment and/or customize the product for a specific customer.
