We've just finished moving servers from AWS to https://hetzner.com https://hetzner.com - and saved 10X with servers of double the capability. A great experience so far.
- jacooper 4y agoHow did you get them to approve a large amount of Cloud instances / dedicated servers? I heard they are very stubborn to increase the per user limit of cloud instances. Also how did you deal with S3? Did you switch to another provider ? Like B2?
- gibsonf1 4y agoWe haven't run into the number of servers issue. For S3, we've switched to Wasabi which very nicely uses the identical API.
- jacooper 4y agoHonestly Wasabi's advantage is free egress, but with b2 + cloudflare gives a better billing system without the three month object retention thing and a CDN with no egress limit.

On managed RDS it was around ~ $2200/month when I checked. Even if you have 2 such boxes for master/replica, it's close to 5x savings.
