Ask HN: How would you host this?
I need to host an application and I'm looking for the cheapest option that considers the following...
* The front-end is written with React
* The back-end is written in Node + Express
* The database is MongoDB
* We don't need much storage. 512 MB should be fine for a while
* We need daily database backups
* The site will have around 30 users and will be less than 1 concurrent request per second
* We will require SSL (HTTPS)
* We can't use the free limits for our AWS account
* I'm the only one who supports this app and I want something reliable and easy to set up and maintain
How would you host this app?
