Managed Cloud Infrastructure Layer Providers for AI Agents

The set of cloud services that sit under an agent: a runtime to host it, sandboxes for code it writes, compute for models, browsers it controls, tool and identity services, memory, and durable execution. Providers offer these separately or as a bundle.

Often yes. A runtime hosts the agent itself, while a sandbox isolates code the model generates. Some runtimes include a code interpreter, so check what each one provides.

Match them to your existing cloud, data location and compliance needs, then compare startup time, isolation model, session length limits, pricing model and observability. Test with your own workload.

Yes. Teams commonly host an agent on one cloud, run code in a specialist sandbox and use a separate memory or tool service. Keep interfaces such as MCP and open protocols in mind to limit lock-in.

Yes. Agents run model-generated code and hold credentials, so use isolated sandboxes, short-lived scoped credentials, network egress controls and audit logs.

Links were checked in October 2026. This market is young and product names, pricing and availability change quickly, so confirm details on each provider's site. Sites that block automated checks are kept and may need a manual click. Descriptions summarize each provider's own documentation and are not rankings.
