That's a lot of moving parts. To give me an idea of what's left over, how lightweight are we talking when you say, "2 or 3 light weight Go services"?

- the_duke 5y agoSure, and that's only recommended if you know your way around Kubernetes. I just wanted to illustrate that it's possible to host a k8s cluster with some workloads for 2.5€ per month. You can always skip the Kubernetes overhead and use plain VMs. Obviously you can't expect too much from a single vCPU at that price, but as an example, I had the above setup plus miniflux (feed reader), Postgres, Maddy (mail server) and Nginx for a few static sites, all on the cheapest instance. It was mostly fine, apart from occasioal stutters.
- papito 5y agoThe amount of time and the opportunity cost involved in "knowing your way around Kubernetes", might as well just pay for Slack.
- fluential 5y agoHetzner small cloud instances mentioned are insanely performant. They don’t seem to limit small instances like other cloud providers do. So you can do around 160MiB / s of disk writes and 1gbit network, for $2.5/month.
