1. A hybrid cellular network system, comprising:
a cellular radio access network (RAN) comprising a plurality of base stations (BSs), each base station of the plurality of BSs comprising:
an antenna, a physical router; a radio unit (RU), and a distributed unit (DU);
a plurality of pass-through edge data centers (P-EDCs), wherein each P-EDC of the plurality of P-EDCs is in communication with a different subset of BSs of the plurality of BSs; and
an aggregation data center (ADC) in communication with the plurality of P-EDCs, the ADC comprising a physical router and a first transit gateway; and
a breakout edge data center (B-EDC) executed on a public cloud computing platform, the B-EDC comprising:
a second transit gateway, wherein the first transit gateway and the second transit gateway each analyze cellular network traffic using a whitelist.
