Are there any recommendations for hosting dataminer in the cloud?
Currently, we are looking at AWS and Azure.

I don't believe we have recommendations from our side, as key is to meet the specifications set in the DataMiner Requirements doc.
Actually, a project that we're working on right now, will have multiple DataMiner Agents deployed on AWS, including also DMA failover.

Something like a m5.4xlarge should meet our requirements. 16 vCPUs and 64 GB RAM that is.
When choosing a suitable AWS instance to host the DataMiner Agent, should an EBS-optimized instance be a mandatory feature on the chosen instance?

Note: It’s by default enabled on the M5.4xlarge instance as proposed by Bert.
m5d.4xlarge
Can you share the type of AWS instances used?
