If you do on-premise hosting, it's like buying all the raw ingredients, spices, equipment (food processors, microwave ovens, juicers etc..) and then preparing your own dinner

Using a Cloud Computing platform like Azure is going to a restaurant or ordering a takeaway, they do the heavy lifting so you don't need to & just pay them for only what you consume.
