New Term: “Dark Cloud”

Definition: A company moved to a cloud provider in a rush without fully understanding its advantages and without fully understanding the company's own disadvantages. The results are a catastrophic disruption to the company and a heavy financial cost. Example: "We tried to move to AWS and now a dark cloud is hanging over us." "Trying to make your own private cloud with X technology is just a dark cloud."
