For completeness, though I'm not sure I recommend others punish themselves 
thus:

I provision a Linode box using Ansible and deploy to it with Capistrano. S3 
bucket for attachments. It's quite cheap but also takes (or took up) a lot 
of my time. Tried the elastic beanstalk and felt totally baffled by the IAM 
security policies. Quite fine grained. That's just me. Had dozens of tabs 
open into the Amazon docs. Others might find it quite straightforward and 
convenient. For quick and easy, Heroku is great. If your time is precious, 
the cost is possibly worthwhile. And it's very reliable (as are the 
others). Supposedly scales nicely too. Haven't had the fortune to 
experience that.

Some might question why not EB when already using S3. Good question.

One more data point among many. Happy hosting!
