I’m not sure what this looks like outside of the US, but colocation providers offer racks of machines, or to host your machines, while providing access to cheap bandwidth and peering capabilities. It’s absolutely possible to move away from the major cloud providers. However, it will require a degree of investment within your organization to support these deployments no matter which you choose, which could be a new investment compared to using AWS, GCP or Azure.
I’m still slow when running, but then my goal is just to be able to run and not get injured. I built from 5k, to 10k and now can complete half marathon races on trails, which is a lot of fun. I’m a big advocate for minimal footwear and building strong feet. We are born to run, but modern footwear is silly.
John Oliver did a report on Boeing recently that is pretty damning.
Setting that up will be a lot more in depth and complicated than leveraging a cloud service provider, so you need to consider the cost benefit analysis for yourself. However, if you want to self host and want the bandwidth, I think it is a route worth considering.
