I should have added:
For incremental cost, you can do things in the cloud that are basically
impossible on your own.
For example, you can have AWS cloud cache your web-content at the edge of
their networks, without really
doing any work on your servers. Point-and-click to reduce web client
roundtrip time by 75%, say. You have
essentially infinite backup space for pennies. You can script the creation
of your web server, and a hot-backup
web server, their backup storage, including installation of every piece of
software, all system and network
config: and then duplicate it identically in a different country with
another point-and-click, done in 15 minutes.
