There was a time when “move everything to the cloud” was the default IT strategy.
For many Australian businesses, that meant shifting workloads to hyperscalers like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud — often fast, and without a long-term cost or control strategy in place.
But in 2025, a growing number of mid-sized Aussie organisations are pulling back — and repatriating key workloads to local or hybrid environments. The reason? Rising costs, performance gaps, and the need for greater visibility, sovereignty, and support.
Cloud repatriation means moving data, apps, or workloads from public cloud platforms back to on-premises infrastructure or private/hybrid cloud environments. It’s not anti-cloud — it’s about the right cloud, for the right workload, managed with clarity and control.
What started as cost-effective cloud usage often becomes bloated with unpredictable billing, data egress fees, and underutilised resources. Businesses are now demanding cost predictability and better return on spend.
For certain workloads — especially those needing low latency or heavy I/O — local infrastructure can outperform public cloud. A hybrid or local-first strategy can deliver better reliability and user experience.
With stricter data regulations, businesses want to know where their data lives and who controls access. Repatriation to a 100% Australian-hosted provider like Amaze ensures data stays onshore and secure.
