Not sure yet, the machines should arrive next week. To be honest we might switch back and forth between own and cloud hardware as we scale up. Right now we process one dataset per week or so, but by December that should become multiple per day. The 3 machines we bought should put us at around 1 per 2 days, but it's more so we can do worry free experimentation. It's really annoying to be constantly worried about wasting money when experimenting. We 'wasted' thousands just experimenting with flags and rendering bad datasets, of course it might still come out as cost effective but it discourages experimentation. The big question for us is if we're going to be able to afford to do it locally, there's both the upfront cost and the cost of system administration. These 3 I could still do with my dev team amateur style, but when that becomes 30, we'll probably need some technician that has experience managing compute clusters.
