I'm not familiar with Python as a web stack but to me it looks that the DO instances are a bit over-scaled for 55k monthly users.
But what caught my eye was DNS Hosting: 5$/Month? Maybe it's a typo, shouldn't be more like 10$ per year to host a domain and its DNS?
Anyway, thanks for sharing, very interesting.
- stevekemp 6y agoI charge £1/zone/month for DNS-hosting, and while most of my clients only have a single zone there are people with 50+ DNS hosting can be cheap (free if you use cloudflare, etc), or very expensive. My prices give me a 50% margin over the raw AWS Route53 costs, but the appeal is that I store records under revision control and let you make changes using git: https://dns-api.com/ https://dns-api.com/
- ing33k 6y agointeresting .. is the price flat even If there are lookups in billions ?
- stevekemp 6y agoYes. AWS charges you a flat-fee per zone, and then additional-fees based on volume of queries. In my case I don't host any domains that go over the threshold where it is billed for - but if I did those costs would be offset by the profit of the other low-volume zones.
- achairapart 6y agoDNS over Git, it's a very interesting concept. Thanks for sharing.
- brendawalsh 6y agoCool concept! I will check it out.
