I'm running a workload that takes about 3 minutes to run per request (compute heavy MVP), which means that a big surge of users once a day at peak would require a LOT of dedicated servers to serve in time.
My plan is to use dedicated servers for most of the load and some elastic capacity at peak loads if necessary.
- ramraj07 7y agoI have a similar use case in mind, TBF I plan to just keep a small EC2 instance up for this need, and assemble a nice PC at home to catch up with the queue from my home for heavy workloads, the cost is so much cheaper and I get a PC as well! Worst case I spin up one more worker with more specs if the queue gets long. Sounds less effort than doing all this scaling work for a MVP and counterproductive when I'd rather spend more time on my actual logic
- tpxl 7y agoThat's my initial plan as well, until the requirements get too high for my PC :)
