I have used AMAZON Aws, Ec2, Amazon RDS and S3 and cloudfront. They are very good and affordable.
There is a learning curve involved! I have also used rackspace, and they are good if you want to tell them to do all the configs, but I know they had intermittent issues of downtime and they cost more than Amazon. Scalablity requires some skills. Load balancing, monitoring a part of that cycle and it also depends on your code. If you want to email me I can assist with some questions, Im happy to advise. It depends what the client wants. If its mobile, they might be able to use a 3rd party managed cloud system.
