I now have tried AWS LightSail and Digital ocean beets them 20:1 . DigitalOcean is faster and has more options when setting up Droplets/Instants for virtual servers. the speed of Digital Oceans servers beet AWS 4:1 with the same specs. ill stay on DigitalOcean
We run a job board on a single droplet: Flask web and worker roles under systemd, a crawler that re-pulls dozens of sources every six hours, and a headless browser for card rendering. What DigitalOcean gets right is that a droplet is just a Linux box, so deploys are rsync plus a systemctl restart and a rollback is keeping the previous directory around. Where it stops helping is exactly where a managed platform would: nothing tells you a crashed headless-browser job left zombie processes eating file descriptors until the box quietly stops accepting connections, and the built-in monitoring alerts are too coarse to catch that. Their own managed tiers are priced high enough that the real comparison is a plain droplet plus your own unit files against someone else's platform. Good if you want a server; not if you want to stop thinking about the server.
One of the best cloud hosting service providers ever!
DO a very good cloud hosting with a reasonable price. It is easy to use and it's always improving. I host a small Rails app on DigitalOcean with Cloud 66. Great combo.
Remote VM Hosting (ie. complete and total control over your hardware and software environment) at insanely low prices starting at less-than-a-penny an hour. Even the cheapest plan is extremely capable for software development and lightweight hosting and is capable of providing a graphical desktop environment to connect to via a protocol of your choice (VNC, RDP, etc)
The best I've tried so far. It's super easy to set stuff up and super easy to customize it. The only issue I've had is sometimes the interface glitches out, but it's nothing serious. People complaining about them not having a TOS probably got their sites shut down for a reason and plus should've had a database backup.

DigitalOcean combined with ServerPilot or RunCloud is The Best and Reliable Cloud Hosting. Just $5 per month. Awesome!
