The cloud provider wouldn’t have to, if you are the one running your infra. The SSPL restrictions only apply to businesses that offer MongoDB as a service.

In fact, you can build a similar service and offer it within your organization (and subsidiaries), and you still don’t have to release anything. The license only applies to companies like Amazon if they offer MongoDB as their own service (DocumentDB).

I know that’s a bit tangential, but hope that helps a bit?
