Last time I did the calculation, a dedicated or normal virtualized
infrastructure was more cost effective as long as you could accurately
predict the performance you need.
Cloud services only really help if you need a high dynamic range
regarding scale and performance, e.g. a service that could get a lot of
new users very fast or is only really active for short time spans.
