My company owns their infrastructure and we don't have issues like this and our production servers are working like oiled machines and yet they want to move to 3rd party cloud services for reasons that have yet to be explained

Cloud good, very good for dynamic sizing up and down.

but sir we don't need to scale up and down for our business.

but cloud good.

I'm worried that when the bean counters see the price difference between AWS and self hosted stuff they'll find AWS more expensive and we will have to deliver a year's work for 10 scaled agile teams again, but in our machines

I'm guess you have a fully staffed infrastructure team team, so the reason that has yet to be explained is that they want to downsize that team.

We use cloud services because we have never had a fully staffed infrastructure team.

  • (sad variant) easer it is to fire people.
