    I think the point of using servers in a cloud setting is that you can add "nodes" (or as Amazon calls them "instances") at will, and then use some sort of load balancer to take advantage of them.

    I don't know which company you are looking at, but any good cloud provider should offer you the option of upgrading or downgrading a node/instance at any time, and pro-rating your bill accordingly.

    That being said, the specs you list seem rather under-powered for any system.
