US cloud providers
American businesses often prefer a cloud provider built and headquartered in the United States. This group lists nineteen relevant US-headquartered providers, from the four large public clouds to GPU clouds, edge networks, object storage and data platforms. It is a working list of providers our team plans around and runs workloads on, not a ranking or a market-share claim.
What we do
- Choosing a provider by workload, data location and recovery needs
- Multi-provider designs with a documented exit path
- GPU and AI capacity planning on US-based clouds
- Object storage and offsite backup targets
- Content delivery and edge placement
- Hybrid cloud next to on-premises racks
- Landing zones with identity, network and logging
- Provider-neutral runbooks
The four public clouds come first: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). After them come IBM Cloud, Salesforce with Heroku, Akamai Cloud, Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, Rackspace Technology and Vultr for general and edge workloads, then CoreWeave and Crusoe for GPU and AI capacity, Backblaze and Wasabi for object storage, Fastly for content delivery, Snowflake and Databricks for data platforms, and HPE GreenLake for hybrid, on-premises cloud.
Providers outside the United States, such as OVHcloud, Hetzner or Alibaba Cloud, appear on this site only when a project is for an international firm. Names are experience, never partnerships: we are not a reseller or certified partner of any provider listed.

How we use US cloud providers for clients
Frequently asked questions
Direct answers to the questions we hear most. Something else on your mind?
Send us a messageWhich cloud providers does this group cover?
Nineteen US-headquartered providers. The four large public clouds come first: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The rest cover general and edge workloads, GPU capacity, object storage, content delivery, data platforms and hybrid cloud.
Is this a ranking of providers?
No. It is a working list of providers our team plans around and runs workloads on. It is not a ranking or a market-share claim.
Are you a reseller or certified partner of these providers?
No. Names are experience, never partnerships. We are not a reseller or certified partner of any provider listed, and the names are trademarks of their owners.
Do you work with providers outside the United States?
Only when a project is for an international firm. Providers such as OVHcloud, Hetzner or Alibaba Cloud appear on this site only in that case.
How do you choose a provider for a workload?
By workload, data location and recovery needs. We also plan regional US capacity and set up multi-cloud accounts with guardrails so the choice is documented rather than accidental.
Can we avoid being locked into one provider?
We write exit plans that avoid single-provider lock-in. Book a free assessment or Call (305) 404-9404 to review where your workloads run today.
