the big ones behind AWS , Azure and Google Cloud are Digital Ocean & Vultr.com i use both , Vultr , fast easy to use reliable. you can upload your own ISO image of you operating system . DO algo very good and realiable , the best combination Cloudflare + Vultr or DigitalOcean , create your VPS with Linux & webmin/virtualmin
CloudFlare for DDOS protection , Webmin its like Cpanel but opensource with lot of features. include DoveCot ,postfix , roundcube for your email services.
I have 5 clients using this platforms in every day email use and website.

AWS and Google cloud will be difficult to use and more expensive, next step for you is to use a simpler pricing and service from Hetzner,ovh or digitalocean (maybe linode).
Linode has very good performance but at the time I had them (3-4 years ago I think) their SSD/VPS did not have enough storage (I needed >200GB but they would stop at 160). That has probably changed. I really liked the performance though. I used up to 10TB/month and that was not a problem. I am with MyHosting and reliability has been excellent. But they are definitely not one of the big boys. Good service though. I do have a second site with 1&1 that I use mostly as backup (lots of storage but not much bandwidth). 1&1 was my primary site until they explained to me that 2TB/month was more than I was subscribed to (I had an "infinite bandwidth" plan, funny how 2TB is more than infinite I lost the argument, so I moved my main site to MyHosting...)

About backup, as I briefly explain above, I use a second site which I keep up to date automatically with rsync. I prefer that to using the same company for the main site and the backup. If something gets really screwy, you lose both... The 1&1 backup site costs me $6/month (there is very little bandwidth used but it uses about 200GB of storage.) $6/month for 200GB is pretty cheap.
