Just wondering if anyone uses IaaS (I guess Amazon EC2 would be the frontrunner) or maybe even PaaS?
What are the key things you look for in terms of services in either of the two? Perhaps region, price, or the services available?

From IaaS/PaaS perspective, you should look at the
1) Range of available Options : Is the infrastructure providing faster computing resources OR storage OR database services OR a combination of many.
2) Pricing : Fixed Pricing or Pay as you Go. Later being the best.
3) The current trend of incoming and outgoing traffic of the provider: Most chosen by customers or not.
4) SLA : On the situation of an outage, what is their policy? Refund ? History of outages ?
5) Scaling systems in place : Are load balancers installed by the providers which keep the service instances always up.
