X : Thoughts on cloud repatriation?
Me : Zynga? Good luck.
X : No, Dropbox.
Me : Ok, in extremely rare, specialised and massive scale cases there could be an argument for it. However, the jury is still out on this. Are you the scale of dropbox with their specialist needs?
X : No.

X : No.
Me : Fine. Well, in which case the same economics won't be at play. The positive argument won't exist.
X : No argument for in-house then?
Me : No. Inertia due to pre-existing capital or unwillingness of executive to change the system (i.e. too close to retirement) etc.

X : Not very positive.
Me : No, those reasons aren't but they exist and so you have to be mindful of it. In some cases you have to compromise to an enormous extent just to get some change happening. This is ok, as long as you are honest about it and don't hoodwink yourself.

X : How do you mean?
Me : Compromise is not about making yourself future proof ... it's about buying a bit more time in the hope that some future change (that could be executive or other) will push you in the right direction. Your alternative is to hit the brick wall of inertia.
