Mike Donnelly has some tongue-in-cheek responses:
There are some serious angles to this topic, and I have had conversations with people at conferences who are doing a remigration from the cloud, but it feels like the exception not the rule. It is interesting to think about. I spent most of my career working with on-prem SQL Server, but there was a period of about 10 years (the consulting years) where I didn’t touch anything that wasn’t in the cloud. The past several years have been working in a hybrid environment, but most of the work has been moving things to Azure and Fabric. Koen has some prompts for what our blog posts could be about, but rather than dive deep into any one thing I’m going to go with the blog writer’s best friend – a top 10 list.
The funny thing is, in my time as an on-premises DBA, I never dealt with hardware and didn’t have access to the server room.
