Yes, this isn't as much of a gotcha as you make it seem. On prem is literally running your own cloud. The architecture that all the big cloud providers use of racks and racks of servers running hypervisors deploying VMs using a shared storage tier and SDN is the same thing you build when you're on-prem. You are now just the implementor.
