AWS doesn't oversubscribe their main class of cloud servers, but they will sell you a cheaper t-series if you're willing to accept throttling under heavy CPU use.
They used to have "noisy neighbor" issues with some of their older instance types where another server on the same physical hardware could monopolize the disk/network bandwidth (but not the CPU), but they've resolved that now, every server can use it's published resources (except for network which can burst up on 10 Gig on some instances types, but sustained except on large instance types that can sustain 10Gig)
They've built their business model on selling dedicated resources, and I don't see that changing.
