For our specific use case *.cloud sucks most of the time - AWS, Google, Rackspace, SoftLayer - used them all, and they are either hideously expensive, hideously slow, and a lot of the times both. when you spend over $1000 per month on hosting, you are almost always better off leasing servers somewhere. Your stuff is faster, you will have more freedom, less worries, and if you do it right, more time for other things.
