If there is the need for a global CDN and there is some left-over development capacity, just look at local providers for dedicated servers and build your own. The bandwidth prices are often insanely low. For example Hetzner in Germany has 20 TB egress traffic included for their 3€/month cloud servers. The same would cost $1,800 on AWS.

Of cause with a dedicated server you need to worry about hard disk failures etc, but the price difference is just too big to ignore. Plus on a dedicated server one needs to worry less about Spectre.
