What I do agree with is that the loss of control of operating your network yourself does present a risk. But that is a personal position,
Yes. Few comparisons are obviously and exclusively better or worse. It is attractive to think of them as such, because it removes a lot of uncertainty and complexity in decision making. Because going 'it depends', is often highly uncomfortable to people, as then you have to understand much more deeply what you are doing and we generally don't like doing the work needed.
As I've said many times before, classic telco is no longer a model the way it used to be, and I hope that rather than fight content the way we've been doing for the past 20 years - and failing dismally - we can use this opportunity to actually work together and stay relevant, FWIW.
My rule of thumb is, if you do it, sell it. If you're not going to sell it, buy it. Be it email, compute, data centre. If you're going to bother with your own compute infra, you should be selling cloud to capitalise those investments. -- ++ytti
