A network partition is always one of those events that we all say OH CRAP to and then pick up the pieces and carry on. As it is always out of our control unless it was our switch/hardware that failed internally.

When you go Cloud, You have to handle the worst-case scenario when a network partition happens. And what should you do when the network resumes operation after a network partition? How do you sync data between local apps and the cloud apps? It's way too complicated, which translates into extra programming, debugging and testing!
A terminal server is always a better solution, in my limited opinion.

complete
or mature as the self-hosted product. Either way, it costs way more than just time and money. Sanity and common sense are often victims as well.
