Should you, as a developer, cultivate the knowledge and skills to setup all of the services you need? I think the best answer is "yes."
And at the same time you can depend on a hosting company to support you in this regard. Keeping a data center up and running 24/7 is no easy thing. You cannot do this by yourself, so you would naturally turn to Amazon Web Services or a similar hosting company to provide the platform. But knowing how to install and configure the tools for web development is a core competency for a web developer. You must have these skills or you must buy these skills because without these skills you cannot really meet client needs for turnkey support.
