Bare metal on a server at Hetzner. I like keeping things simple.
- gmac 9y agoRunning your own RAID on top of a handful of unreliable (probably used) disks is an unusual definition of simple in my book.
- lucaspiller 9y agoIf you know what you are doing vs the latest IaaS fad, it's going to be a lot easier and probably cheaper doing that.
- zepolen 9y agoWhen you architecture your stuff correctly, you don't need RAID.
- andriussev 9y agoIs there a reason why you would not virtualize (use ESXi/Proxmox, etc) the server?
- dangerface 9y agoWhats the benefit?
- Svenstaro 9y agoThat's a lot less simple as now you suddenly have multiple machines to handle (even if they're virtual). Whenever I really want something like that, I'll usually use systemd-nspawn or docker depending on the use case.
