Bah. More virt. Throw down some cash on a cage and fire up AWS Direct Connect, man. It's bliss, you get more choices out here than I did with us-east-1, plus you guys can afford it now.
We plopped in physical gear for a couple parts of our AWS infra a few employers ago and cut our Amazon opex by like, two thirds. Not helpful for your using Azure as a reliability strategy, but worth thinking about for your write-heavy databases, for example.
