Didn't say you have to go "cloud" rent hardware in a DC and run that yourself. Or use a VPS I mean the cloud is just "Other people's hardware" and I'd thank you to not insult gorillas like that by comparing them to Amazon.

this just bring whole load of new expenses on staffing physical locations creates more problem than it solves

[simfree]

Colocation or especially server rental generally requires no persistent staffing. The datacenter has their own staff for tasks requiring physical intervention, and you have IPMI/iLO access to your servers for doing reboots and similar.

Not really renting from a DC provider means you just run the host yourself they deal with power space cooling etc
