That and RDS are kind of a rip-off if you are trying to have a sandbox out there, short of running your own instance.

For that, I found Digital Ocean to be very reasonable.

DO’s pricing has increased a lot. I was surprised, I couldn’t start a $5 vm anymore, it’s worth checking again.

You can, but I think you have to be in one of the regions that supports it. The generally (globally?) available lowest priced VM is $6 a month.
