It is cheaper, but less flexible. Any cost effective solutions for dealing with bursty demand for compute and networking that aren't AWS?

- patrickg_zill 8y agoI don't have any visibility into their load. However 16+ cores and 256GB RAM combined with RAIDed SSDs should be able to handle quite a bit of traffic. It's my opinion that memory bandwidth is a contributing factor to how well interpreted languages (Discourse runs on Ruby) perform. Since the hardware is dedicated, all available memory bandwidth can be used; on AWS you (may) share memory bandwidth between all VMs on the physical hardware.
