Hi,
I am a fan of Amazon AWS's Cloud Services. But it is not perfect.
Enter Digital Ocean (https://www.digitalocean.com), an easier to use, simpler cloud hosting provider, that is cheaper and seems faster. You get a raw machine, so you still need some basic Unix admin skills, but apart from that it cannot get much easier.
Another one that I have filtered out as very interesting is CloudSigma. KVM based and much more flexible than EC2.
Yes, those Swiss guys are pretty good. Being in Europe might be important too. Much more comparable to AWS in terms of features. And I see they are SSD based now, very nice.
regards, Göran
