I have a Wordpress blog that has been continuously up, barring two host server migrations (~3 hours), since 2004. It is powered by a Linode. I have literally never needed to manage the server unless I was actively working on something, like changing the theme. People overcomplicate things these days. You could spend X hours creating some autoscaling, autorecovering setup; but for 99% of projects, it'd maybe encounter an outage that requires your intervention, once a decade.

AMZN doesn't care what the application is and has no vested interest (that I'm aware of) in WP. EDIT: clarity
