I assume by "128Gb", you meant 128GB. 128Gb of RAM is only 16GB, which can be found even in regular consumer PCs. Edit: To be a little clearer, lower case "b" is the unit for a bit. Upper case "B" represents a

All the options in the article can be self-hosted or run anywhere you like, ECS is proprietary and Amazon only, which is likely why it was excluded. Heroku wasn't in the comparison either.

Since you own, there's a chance you can get fiber. Unwired and Paxio are doing it in Berkeley. Here's Unwired: http://unwiredltd.com/fiber.php Wireless is also potentially an option.

Seconded, for similar reasons. Even in the US, for $400/mo you can get a colo with an unmetered gigabit pipe (Hurricane Electric, FDCServers). Assuming you only use it 50%, that's about 160TB, for a final price of $0.0025/GB.
