Before making a decision, worth the read:

that makes sense in the context of the companies that the article
examined, which is to say companies where the annual spend on cloud
services runs into tens of millions of dollars. At that level, there's
a clear argument that economy of scale can achieved by in-housing. If
the RIPE NCC had the same level of compute requirements as those
companies, e.g. dropbox, palantir or zoom, I'd totally be solutioneering
an in-house option from my comfy armchair.
