My main concern here is that I'd prefer something where we could keep build config in the repo (mostly for bus factor reasons). The cost isn't a huge deal, but if it can be cheap enough that I don't really have to care (or free) then so much the better. Mainly, this just doesn't really *need* to be CI; it can be manually triggered and/or happen on a release trigger.

I don't want to bikeshed this too much, so feel free to ignore if it's not helpful: But given that you just want to do this manually/on release, would it make more sense to just use one of the existing windows base images for vagrant and spin up a local vm w/ some provisioning and a batch file or msbuild project or whatever to kick off the build inside that? It would require someone to have virtualbox locally when doing the build, but that's free and not too onerous, and avoids the whole configuring/maintaining a cloud service of some sort...you'd just have a vagrantfile and the provisioning/build scripts in the repo that way.
