I'm nervous about straying from Django ecosystem for its productivity. And people smarter than me using Rails have made peace with their sky high server bills. Has this changed?
- rglullis 5y agoThat was never a thing. I had django websites running on 2GB of RAM at webfaction (shared hosting) with databases that got techcrunched and went on fine. I had sites with Django/Celery/Postgresql on a single server with 8GB RAM which worked fine for years. Unless you have an unbelievably I/O or CPU heavy application, the tech stack is not going to be your bottleneck until you are in the tens of thousands of concurrent users.
- tluyben2 5y agoYep. One of our most used products is a Django site and it’s been on a 2gb server with MySQL and celery since 2013. No problems at all. Also 0 downtime, literally. Sometimes you get lucky!
