I didn't know Python3 offers better performance to be honest, but Sqlite is a real ordeal for this t2.micro now ;) (Switched to PostgreSQL in a hot-change fashion!)

How much do you pay for your t2.micro?

  It's $9.50/month. Quite a lot of money for 1GB RAM, 1 vCPU. https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/t2/ https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/t2/

    It doesn't make sense if you are not orchestrating them heavily, really.

      Even if you do, if you need lots of power, just get a cheap powerful VPS or even dedicated. AWS advantage is infinite redundancy, you can fully automate failing servers. But it looks like you have to pay around 10X for that.

SQLite can handle a lot more than people think. The SQLite website uses it for production (https://www.sqlite.org/whentouse.html https://www.sqlite.org/whentouse.html)

  It can handle a lot of reads, but you'll have problems with multiple concurrent writes (at least with Python). I run read-heavy production websites on SQLite just fine, though.
