AWS is useful for small sites expecting large spikes or very large sites utilizing their advanced featureset (likely not Pelican.) Otherwise it's expensive and often slow relative to alternatives. I'd look into standard VPS offerings. Even Rackspace (one of the more expensive providers) will be cheaper to significantly cheaper depending upon usage.

My experience is based on open source software -- IIS may be better suited to AWS for reasons I'm not aware.
