Yes, that is certainly a good case for cloud services.


I also use cloud services for the same, but on a limited basis.


We used to run UNIX.COM in the cloud many years ago, but it was just a PITA compared to a top end dedicated box.


If we were not so "old and long in the tooth" here at UNIX.COM and did not have so much legacy PHP code, I might consider the cloud again, but we have far too much legacy code for cloud services.

NAME
services -- service name data base DESCRIPTION
The services file contains information regarding the known services available in the DARPA Internet. For each service a single line should be present with the following information: official service name port number protocol name aliases Items are separated by any number of blanks and/or tab characters. The port number and protocol name are considered a single item; a slash (``/'') is used to separate the port and protocol (e.g. ``512/tcp''). A hash (``#'') indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent char- acters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines which search the file. Service names may contain any printable character other than a field delimiter, newline, or comment character. The database in /var/db/services.db needs to be updated with services_mkdb(8) after changes to the services file have been applied. FILES
/etc/services The services file resides in /etc. SEE ALSO
getservent(3), services_mkdb(8) HISTORY
The services file format appeared in 4.2BSD. BUGS
