Looks interesting. But why do you recommend such large 20/40 usd droplets for running on digital ocean? Surely one would scale pretty far by simply using a dedicated postgres db - and a small app container?

The advantages of a proxy are that we can automatically authenticate requests, handle retries & rate limits, monitor & alert, etc.
