All? I don't know. Choose a company that does!

Once again, this is a question for your hosting company. For Adalog (and
Ada-Europe, see http://www.ada-europe2014.org for an example of a site
powered by Ada/AWS), I used shares of virtual machines. I have complete
access to the machine, including choosing my OS among many, installing
software, running whatever I want, and connecting through ssh.

For info, my provider is Gandi. Cheap and very convenient. Good support too.

It's not different from a local machine. In my case, I'm running Debian,
so I installed Gnat+AWS with a couple of "apt-get install" through ssh.
I transfered my sources with FTP, and recompiled.

I also installed Webmin to create users and launch the program at
start-up without having to fiddle with parameter files.
