Best PaaS hosting option for Oscar

[Aaron Kim]

I'd like to find out the best(or least troublesome) PaaS hosting option for Oscar. Can you please share your experience? I am currently considering Azure WebApp. Anybody tried this one with Oscar?

Hi, i have really bad experience using Azure as PaaS, IaaS provider.. there is a couple of reasons to do not use it:

1. Expensive, expensive, expensive !

2. Windowsish -> HyperV running Linux VMs for me sound wired and I’m 100% sure low performance. 

I did some performance testing and latency of their SSD storage and steal time of CPU was 2-4 times higher then with Amazon(It’s expensive too, but more fair to the clients)

The things with Azure might change.

Thanks for your input, Eugene. I am aware that running VM on any IaaS environment can be quite expensive. However, PaaS is a different story. Have you used WebApp as a part of its Azure App Service offering? WebApp is certainly different with running VM and shall be a lot cheaper. Is your experience with IaaS or PaaS?
