Looks like they will also offer dedicated servers with ESXi on them.

Ah, pre-built with log4j access enabled then?

Yes, it's included for free! No extra cost to you.

Indestructible 'Black Box' will record our planet's demise in minute detail

By Cameron Duke
The disaster recorder aims to set us on a better path by watching our every move.
...
The solar-powered vault will be roughly the length of a school bus and the shape of an upside-down curb stop, and the entire thing will be encased in 3-inch-thick (7.5 centimeters) steel designed to withstand catastrophe, just as an airplane's black box is built to withstand an impact. And just like a black box is tucked away in the safest part of a plane, Earth's Black Box will be placed in the most secure location on Earth, which is Tasmania, apparently. When it goes online, Earth's Black Box will be filled with hard drives recording and storing climate-related information, ABC News Australia reported.
