1) It's not about money savings so if that's your only motivation, this is the choice for you. Not saying it won't save you money as it certainly may, but it also may not and that will be completely variable dependent upon many different factors unique to your organization and usage anyway.
2) A CAS is *never* suitable for anything, on-prem or Azure. A bit tongue in cheek there but if you actually need a CAS, look again, most folks who think they need CAS don't. All roles are supported. When and where you should put them on-prem or in Azure (or another cloud) is an architectural decision that once again is scenario dependent. 3) If you mean do you need to have HTTPS enabled client-facing roles - DP, MP, SUP - then the answer is no. The CMG proxies HTTPS client communication to on-prem, HTTP client facing roles except for the DP which must be a cloud DP at this point. 4) If there were an answer to a question like that then we wouldn't have jobs and everything would just work perfectly.
