I am currently evaluating Amazon's EC3 free tier (613 megs ram, 10 gig HD space and a single core 2.66GHz processor) and right now I have an instance running on a bare bone Centos 5.4 64 bit install with Railo, Apache 2.2, Tomcat, Mysql and WebMin and it is running like a top. I still have a couple hundred megs of ram head room. This should be plenty to run a couple of low traffic sites. I ran my blog (Blog cfc) and 5-6 other sites on Railo for a couple of years with out a hiccup.
I am still evaluating and experimenting with it but I will probably make a public copy of the AMI so others can try it out. BTW, Amazon's free tier is for good for 1 year for new customers. After that you can rent the instance for as low as $10 a month with a years lease. http://aws.amazon.com/free/ G!
