First thing you want to know when deploying ESXi to cloud environments is if your cloud provider supports Nested Virtualization. If you're deploying ESXi to a virtual machine that's a must have.

As of today, Google and AWS don't support nested virtualization.

Your options are: Go to Azure, they have some specific servers that can support nested virtualization (DS3 and E3 Layers) or go to Bare Metal (Softlayer).
