We don't host on AWS, we host on GCE. Also you're way off with your estimation. We pay significantly less.
As the instance go, we have almost everything ranging from many thousands on the micro side to hundreds on the largest side.
- nodesocket 10y ago$200 a server was my estimate which is pretty conservative. I assumed that price included disk and bandwidth per server. 25,000 * $200 = 5 million a month.
- doh 10y agoWell, no. You're calculating with 100% utilization + with normal servers. Preemptible (or spot) instances are way cheaper. For instance 8 core 7GB ram preemptible server on GCE costs around $45/month under full utilization. We may use it for couple of hours a day and then terminate and open a different one. It truly differs minute by minute.
