Thanks for explaining.

Do you know if such a VPN is fundamentally different from something like OpenVPN, which can also be used site-to-site?

Functionally it's the same outcome, however these are managed solutions that the cloud provider (usually along with a networking partner) setup and maintain. This leads to much better reliability and speed and it's also not running over the public internet like a typical VPN so it's better for handling sensitive data access.
