Honestly, I wouldn’t buy a VPS, but I did test out TATA’s CloudStack when I was 
running CloudStack in a lab, and didn’t have any issues.
Given I was just warming up some IPs for testing, and didn’t move anything real 
over there.  I doubt they are even using it still, but that’s my experience on 
VPS.

IMHO at least get a /29 on IPv4 so that the provider can SWIP your IP Space, 
and make sure they do it.
Run all the BCOPs, DKIM, SPF, DMARC, and even MTA-STS since it’s relatively 
easy, if possible add DANE and TLSA records.

First though, look at the reputation of every provider.  Talos is one place, 
MailOps is another: https://www.mailop.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop 
<https://www.mailop.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mailop>
Check out M3AAWG: https://www.m3aawg.org/ <https://www.m3aawg.org/>, though a 
lot of the information is going to be towards bulk senders.

Finally define your acceptable risk, so I’ve got dedicated servers on OVH with 
all BCOPs except for Google’s ARC, never did figure that out on milters,
but it’s RBL’d on a few providers which is fine since I mainly use it for 
incoming and down notifications on monitoring, so I’ve got myself whitelisted.
