    Amazon AWS
    Chose Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling
    AWS UI's are better to use. They are cleaner. Azure UI looks crowded. AWS instance is faster than Azure. Load balancer emphases in AWS is useful.

    We prefer Google App Engine over Linode when need to hosting applications for R&D and Testing. Since the deployment has much less configuration.
