>Or you can just run from a residential connection for effectively free if your service is _that_ small. Been there, done that. Buy a raspberry pi, install raspbian, install nginx, node, whatever the stack is gonna be, configure port forwarding on a router, spend hours to days getting it working. Have tons of downtime--oops you don't have a static ip, oops your sd card got corrupted, hey lets update this to the latest version oh no everything is broken...and on and on and on. Or, figure out how to use S3 buckets and lambda functions once, and from then on watch everything just work and cost virtually nothing. For small (I'm the only user) types of projects, I'll stick to serverless for now on, so I can be a programmer and not a sysadmin.
