Looking for input on network redesign and best practices.

Hello all. I am looking for some advice and direction on redesigning our network topology. We currently ask the colo to provision a new circuit per customer with the colo providing VRRP, and each leg of the VRRP hand off goes to pair of ASAs in active / standby with static routing. We try to keep things simple but this is getting expensive as the number of customers grow. Current topology per customer

Is it feasible to do something like this topology?

What are the best practices for a design like this ? This is a little outside my wheelhouse but since there isn't really a "network guy" here , but I am the one with enough know how to get it done. So, I feel like I can get this done with just some L2 switches and keep it simple. Am I mistaken ? Should I look into going L3 and possibly VRRP on our end too ?

Lastly, can you all give me some hardware recommendations to accomplish this? We're a primarily a Cisco / Dell shop. Collectively our current customers are using 500Mbps but we'll need 1Gbps within a year.

I appreciate any and all help
