For discourse yes I would suggest Digital Ocean with 1GB RAM and with 2 GB swap disk as recommended by codinghorror

Here is [official installation guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-digital-ocean.md).

P.S: I still Prefer Linode over Digital Ocean for their support/stability and backup system. but until they start supporting AUFS officially, Digital Ocean is next best option for me.  
Thanks
