The hardware, operating system (OS), software, and networking features chosen provide high availability, redundancy, security and service options. Current providers are Amazon web services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Oracle cloud infrastructure (OCI). Each CSP must be implemented with their cloud service solution to establish a dedicated network connection (Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, FastConnect).
