What are the implications? Higher perf and/or lower price?

Looks to be about $5/Month cheaper, based on this page:

Jeez, I didn't realize how expensive cloud compute was. I always wondered why my school still has a datacenter. Having your own servers still makes sense for a lot of orgs.

It's also expensive to get data out of cloud too. Getting data in is easy but getting it out will cost you.
