What about the many, many customers that deal with HIPPA (Health Safety Information) And Patient Safety information? Also, what about security clearance? There are very few hosting services out there that offer certified compliance standards as well as employee screenings for ALL employees that will be handling (read: potentially have access both on hardware and software levels) for things that require background checks (Such as FBI background check, etc.). I deal with this on a daily basis. I've dealt with incompetent people, let's call them c-level, who just want to throw everything out of the data center into some puffy place so they don't have to worry (read: pay) for infrastructure/support on-going and up front. Also they thing this will deal with things like overheard regarding number of needed staff/salaries. Drives me up a goddamn wall. Private cloud with proper DR in place is good enough. That's the only way I'd ever plan it.
