1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
provisioning radio access network (RAN) equipment capable of supporting a first frequency scheme and a second frequency scheme in a RAN, the RAN having at least one network function implemented on cloud provider infrastructure;
determining respective levels of interference for the first frequency scheme and the second frequency scheme in a geographic area;
determining respective available bandwidths for the first frequency scheme and the second frequency scheme in the geographic area based at least in part on the respective levels of interference;
selecting the first frequency scheme instead of the second frequency scheme based at least in part on the respective available bandwidths for the first frequency scheme and the second frequency scheme and the first frequency scheme being capable of meeting a quality-of-service requirement associated with at least one of: a wireless device, or an application executed in the wireless device; and
configuring the RAN equipment to provide service to the wireless device using the first frequency scheme.
