Dedicated links are not that difficult to come by anymore. It's mainly done with SDN. I know Megaport, for example, let's you provision virtual circuits to dozens of providers including Azure, AWS, and GCP. You can run several virtual circuits over a single ccross-connect.
I look forward to hearing your performance results running in cloud VMs, but I'm fairly confident it will be both sub-optimal and expensive.
