GlusterFS can be deployed on private, public, or hybrid clouds

From a container image to a full VM dedicated to GlusterFS, one of the main points of interest for cloud customers is that since GlusterFS is merely software, it can be deployed on private, public, or hybrid clouds. Because there is no vendor, locking volumes that span different cloud providers is entirely possible. Allowing for multi-cloud provider volumes with high availability setups is done so that when one cloud provider has problems, the volume traffic can be moved to an entirely different provider with minimal-to-no downtime, depending on the configuration.
