Yes the target budget is max 10€/month (so a little bit more than $USD) It's a Java8 Play Framework application currently the App Engine doesn't support that and I had problems setting up the new Engine since my project uses sbt and I didn't had "enough" time to invest. actually the application won't need that much network. it needs 'nearly infinitiv' storage (non durable) and sometimes use preemtive vms to convert them (this could go over budget, but thats ok). it's just that I need at least one vm that serves the web, this will upload the images to the object storage then it will fire premeetive vms and converts them, this will put the images in the real object storage and calls the always on vm to insert something in the database (i.e. image path) actually the one vm needs to contain a small database (we are talking about mb so memory isn't an issue) and a java app. so as said micro is too small and small is too big for that always on vm. my current planned setup is ovh instance -> gcloud object storage -> preemtive vm (if there is one) -> gcloud object storage - ovh instance btw. I made some calculations and with the 3.4 € from ovh and somtimes preemtive vms and something like 30g/10g object storage (which hopefully will raise, but than again no problem on the costs) will cost us less than 7€ + Domain (which is billed per year) btw. the preemtive vms runs something like 48 hours per month (mostly less since the most images will started between november < - > february) Edit: btw i wanted to use the datastore (database) aswell, but I couldn't activate it in a project without a app engine.
