Equinix's Cloud Exchange <https://www.equinix.co.uk/services/interconnection-connectivity/cloud-exchange/> service is worth a look too, it hooks in to Azure ExpressRoute amongst others.

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.

    Hello Marc,
    Unfortunatly we can't move from Azure so easily, we plan to open
    more and more azure region in the futur, so this strategy leads us
    to the ceph integration issue.
    Even if we had others datacenters near to them, I guess it would
    require dedicated network links between the ceph clients and the
    ceph cluster and we may not have the resources for this kind of
    architecture.

    We are going to try ceph on azure by deploying an small cluster
    and keep a eye on any performances issues.

        What about putting it in a datacenter near them? Or move
        everything out
        to some provider that allows you to have both.

        Subject: [ceph-users] Ceph on Azure ?

        Hello,

        We are working to integrate s3 protocol in our webs
        applications. The
        objective is to stop storing documents in bdd or filesytem but
        use s3's
        buckets in replacement.
        We already gave a try to ceph with rados gateway on physicals
        nodes, its
        working well.

        But we are also on Azure, and we can't get baremetals servers
        from them.
        We planned a high volumetry ~50TB/year + 20% each year which
        make ~80K
        Euro/year per Azure region. The storage cost on Azure is high
        and they
        don't provide any Qos on the network latency.
        We found a 2016 post from the gitlab infrastructure's team
        about the
        network latency issue on azure which confirms our concern:
        https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/gl-infra/infrastructure/issues/678


        Is there anyone using ceph in production on a cloud provider
        like Azure?
