I am thinking of migrating my home lab "to the cloud" and was wondering if anyone has done so. I've been looking at Amazon and Azure - Amazon have more in the way of "free" micro-instances to get you up and running, but Azure seems a helluva lot cheaper overall. Has anyone gone this route (or similar)? I am sick and tired of doing backups of VMs and data, being crippled by hardware failures, spending lots of time maintaining the lab itself, etc. and was wondering if anyone has any pointers to share around possible migration to an online service?
