How does a cloud offering's going to help you with slow queries and tuning? Same for the security part (the biggest threats coming through your app anyway).

Honestly, I don't know and would like to know as well. Can you share some insights into how much a cloud database allows to be tuned?

I haven't used a cloud offering before, but OP was asking about managing and operating a database. And that list is what we do at work or at home.
