Holy cow, $60/month for one VPS strictly used for educational projects? You can find and build 10 VPS's (US based) on http://www.lowendbox.com http://www.lowendbox.com for less than that, granted you wont be on Amazon's network, but for small projects and testing distributed services they are great.
- ceejayoz 14y agoA $15/month micro would likely have sufficed, and you can get that down to about $8/month with a reserved instance.
- jeffbarr 14y agoAn EC2 t1.micro instance costs considerably less than that and it makes a perfectly decent host for one or more low-traffic blogs. On the other hand, hosting a blog on S3 means that it can scale to handle any conceivable amount of traffic.
