Sorry, a bit late to the party.

I can just tell you my anecdotal experience with our setup:

  1. Depends on your internal IT department. They should be asked first, if your company has standard procedures for this topic in place (Hosting VMs, Cloud). If you dont have an IT department, i would recomend you a Cloud Provider. The bigger ones (AWS, Azure) are a little pricier. Using a smaller one could save you about half of the amount you would use at the big ones.
  2. My experience with Azure Windows VM was quite smooth for deployment
  3. Not yet encountered.
  4. Rhino uses more CPU then GPU. CPU optimzed VM are luckily cheaper. You should start with the cheapest one, and go from there. If its to slow, get a VM with more CPU.
