Dude, there are TONS of industries that don’t rely on it. And even those who do, only do it because it’s more practical, but not out of necessity. Some companies have even gone back to on-premise because of costs and other security concerns, especially when the U.S. controls every single largest cloud service provider out there.
I know one canadian grocery chain that has their IT stuff all hosted on-prem. They don’t use cloud services. Some financial institutions also don’t use cloud services. For the longest time, SAP provided on-prem hosting services for their SAP Cloud Commerce platform before they moved to the cloud in 2019. It’s not a necessity. It’s just more practical.

Ah, my bad, I just saw the “data storage and services” part and just ignored the “cloud” word. I was thinking more along the lines of, “what company doesn’t need IT services?”
Cloud data storage and services.
That’s not essential. It’s very practical. But we can do without.
not essential? Maybe, but name 1 industry that doesn’t depend on it.

😂😂😂 That’s okay.
Too many government services use it.
We could, but right now we’re not and we have a whole lot of government shit backed up on Azure and likely AWS servers.
