Come on, either name names or admit it is pure PR.

Edit: or will someone who can decode the clues weigh in?

I was curious and don't know enough of the cloud internals so asked an LLM:

Cloud A: AWS (Amazon Web Services)

Cloud B: Azure (Microsoft Azure)

Cloud C: GCP (Google Cloud Platform)

Cloud D: OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)

Gemini had some decent evidence for each choice too, but I didn't confirm anything.
