As an example: some people might be using the offerings from Microsoft or Amazon, whilst other people might be running a VM with a VPS somewhere and hosting their apps like Homeassistant, OpenHAB, Node-Red etc there.

I wanted to know if you do something like this, and what might be the downsides to doing something like this.

Thanks!
