How to access a device that is not cloud enabled?

If the devices are not cloud-enabled (where all management and user access is by cloud-based applications), then you're going to need to access them either by local IP address or by hostname. Using IP addresses is cumbersome and inflexible; every local, non-cloud device should be accessed by hostname. That implies having a local DNS server. When accessing by hostname, you can change the IP address of the device, update the DNS, and be done. If you're accessing by IP address, changing the IP address means updating every other device or program that accesses the device. Devices that work best with unchanging IP addresses can be set up with DHCP reservations, but I prefer to set key network infrastructure devices like routers, switches and DNS and DHCP servers with static addresses.

What happens if Windows fails to connect to the secondary DNS?

When Windows fails to the secondary DNS, it will continue using that DNS for a considerable period even when the primary becomes available again. This can lead to a loss of access if the secondary DNS is not AD-integrated. Always use ONLY AD-integrated DNS servers in an AD domain.

Does DNS matter in the cloud?

However, that's assuming they have an internal domain. If everything is public (which is less common), then of course it doesn't matter what DNS server they use.

Is there a reason to not run DNS/DHCP in the cloud?

To answer your question, my answer would be, 'none'. No reason to not run DNS/DHCP in the Cloud. They have redundant connections, don't seem to mind the cost factors, etc... so having those Cloud-based should make absolutely no difference to them. But you're also not answering some critical questions.

Can DHCP update DNS?

Ideally, the DHCP server would be able to dynamically update the DNS server as leases are obtained and released. If you have an Active Directory domain, then your Active Directory clients should be using an Active Directory integrated DNS server -- or one that is properly updated with Active Directory information.
