Maintaining the "servers" is (vendor) systems programming IMO (in the case of Oracle / SAP cloud subscriptions); you still need database "administrators" / designers "locally". "Fixes", 24/7 and backups, are vendor problems.

Subscription costs tend to creep though if you don't keep an eye on them. It all still depends on the smallest hose you'll be going through.
