I think the impact is going to be far greater than that.

I have seen, at least here in the UK, some people speaking about moving entirely back to hardware that is controlled by the organisation. The case is there on a cost basis already but people are reluctant to admit this. If another magical guarantee expires such as a security one, then the reason can be shifted to that and the cost justification is collateral.

Getting out of PaaS systems is going to be horrible and expensive though. We never should have gone further than IaaS.

I suspect the idea of the cloud as it stands today may die fairly quickly.
