Are there any hosting companies not named Amazon or Google? I could see how for a small-scale operation it could be beneficial to host a redundant server for backups... but even then, I am not sure how much that is really worth.

DigitalOcean and Backspace are still doing brisk business, and very competitive for some segments (Gameservers and the like)

If it's just backups there are tons of options out there. Backblaze for example.

The security implications of running your own AWS cloud infrastructure with API building blocks for people to use to build their own infra sounds like too much for a one man shop.
