<p>Recommendation: <br>
</p>
<p>Use Linode instead of AWS. It isn't managed, but they provide
great service: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.linode.com/">https://www.linode.com/</a></p>
<p>It's similar to Digital Ocean in that you can duplicate and
engineer different server configurations. <br>
</p>
<p>If all you want is a command line without the GUI, Linode gives
you that too. <br>
</p>
<p>You can buy Linode time by the day. <br>

That is the issue I face as a host. I know a cloud format is
better than the single server format for hosting for several
reasons, principally redundancy, management and distributed
content. But in my experience, we're in a transition time when all
the clouds that are affordable enough and could be used for shared
hosting are owned by the same big companies that are trying to get
our information and that I don't want to support. <br>
<br>
I do believe private clouds will become more affordable and usable
over time. In the meantime we do our best -- our servers are
hosted in relatively green colo's that have direct access to the
internet backbone, we back up every day and, for any sites that
need it for bandwidth and global distribution, use a CDN - mainly
Cloudflare, or Sucuri if they need a firewall too. Love Sucuri.<br>
