I would be most grateful for advice on migrating a Drupal 7 multisite to a cloud. I have read "Drupal on Google App Engine and AWS". Here is the current profile:

  • 4-5 sites
  • Customers are small digitally-driven businesses (freelance workers, repairshops, private investors).
  • Very low usage (eg: 0-5 visits/day)
  • Need to keep costs low
  • Each site has a separate DB. I could merge them using a prefix but that might be complicated if a site "takes off".
  • About 15 contributed modules
  • 2-3 custom modules
  • Two languages on some sites
  • Some sites send a few automatic business-related emails (shipment details, alerts, courier requests, etc). I note that Google Compute Engine requires SendGrid, whose minimum charge is relatively expensive.
  • Some SQL statements entail 5-6 tables
  • I will use some custom cron files to update fields every night.
  • I like Drupal and drush

Which cloud fits my profile best and why? Any comment will be appreciated.

As Drupal is already installed and the question posed has little to do with Drupal specifically the question posed is better served in the 'General Discussion' forum. Please edit the opening post and move it. Thank you.
