Hosted Ubuntu server recommendations

[Bikerjon]

Hi,

I'm looking to get a hosted ubuntu server for some software that I want to test out. Ideally I only want to commit for say 30 days until I know if it's worthwhile or not. I guess this might be a good fit for Amazon web services, but every time I look at AWS it makes my head hurt with all the confusing pricing tiers and options!

Can anyone recommend a suitable service? Simpler the better.

Get a VPS from somewhere like digital ocean.

+1 for Digital Ocean, I use a small Ubuntu machine there to run Algo VPN. Pricing and instance specs (they call them droplets) are all very clear and simple. You'll be up and running in minutes.

Thanks for the digital ocean suggestion - looks really easy. I'll go with that.
