For those of us with small (a few to a dozen servers), we'd like to get out
of server maintenance completely. Can anyone with experience on a cloud VM
solution comment? Do the VM solutions provided by the major hosting
companies have the same good performance as the VM's that that several have
described here?

Obviously there's Amazon's new Postgres solution available. What else is
out there in the way of "instant on" solutions with Linux/Postgres/Apache
preconfigured systems? Has anyone used them in production?

Thanks,
Craig
