I'm curious what made you decide to do that?  I do think there are some benefits from running a BBS in a cloud service, but there are some drawbacks as well (they charge a hosting fee, and you have less control over the hardware etc.).

A while ago, I calculated the cost of the electricity usage of my BBS PC at home and it's very little.  Also, I have total control of my BBS PC at home, and I run some other servers on it as well (including Plex Media Server).
