With all the advantages of migrating to the cloud, there is a danger of jumping in too quickly or going to the cloud at all costs. From a security standpoint, and particularly an Identity Security standpoint, it is very important to ensure that your core identity security functions: identity governance and administration and privileged access management are not compromised due to a cloud-delivery strategy. So as you are evaluating cloud-based identity security solutions (PAM and IGA) do not accept anything less than full functionality, full scope, and full benefit. So move to the cloud at the pace that is best for you and in the manner that best suits your objectives, but DO NOT sacrifice anything from an Identity Security perspective. You can do it, but you have to approach the cloud with your eyes wide open. We say cloud without compromise.

@Oliver Chitsamatanga, ​ The correct answer: it depends. But firstly, let's correct your question: cloud-hosted does not necessarily conclude outsourcing. It is totally normal to self-host something in the cloud. This triggers another point: do you need to compare on-premise vs cloud or do you need a comparison of self-hosted (on-prem or cloud) vs SaaS (Software-as-a-Service)?We can do both. On...

It depends on your requirements. Mostly, a backup solution covers the cloud as well (e.g., products like Veritas NetBackup you can integrate with the cloud).  Pros:  -No need to manage infra. You just need to work on an application. -Easy installation. Cons:  -All your data would be in your own DC and  -You can manage it as per your company policy

There are advantages and disadvantages to both on-prem and cloud backup solutions. It depends on where the data is stored to start with, the amount of data, and the type of data. There are also costs involved as on prem would have a higher cost up front for the infrastructure but if your data is in a local data center would be more accessible for backups and restores. While cloud is inexpensive for the storage there are normally tiers and different costs based upon hot, cool, and cold storage.  And depending on where the data is stored in the cloud there are different costs associated with restores. You might need a hybrid model where you do some backup/restores on-prem and some in the cloud.   There is no one solution that fits the bill for all companies so you have to weigh all the options that best fit your needs. Just remember that the data is important and that many times cloud providers only backup their infrastructure and not your data that resides in their cloud. You have to assign a risk factor if you can afford to lose some data that might be hosted.  A good example of this would be Microsoft 365. Microsoft guarantees the system, but if someone "accidentally" does a permanent delete on their inbox, the data would be gone unless you had a 3rd party solution to backup that data.
