Or just rent a bare-metal server with 32 real cpus and 128gb of ram for <100 bucks a month... My bare metal k8s cluster running on rented bare-metal costs <300 a month and I have hundreds of cores and hundreds of gb of ram available.
- esafak 3y agoWhere do you get servers in the US at that price?
- withinboredom 3y agoOVH has them in North America. You can get 32 threads (16 cores) and 32 gb of ram for 100 euro a month (120ish USD).

- withinboredom 3y agoIs it really that hard to install netdata? It's a single command. It is really no different than managing VPS's, in all honesty (just less expensive and tangible). I spend less than one hour a week doing updates and routine maintenance. Drive failures happen rarely, and can usually be swapped out within a few hours (this is what RAID is for). More time is spent dealing with k8s and it's shenanigans than dealing with the actual servers.
- shortrounddev2 3y ago> It is really no different than managing VPS Many people don't do that. My company uses EKS and we just send dockerfiles and yaml files at it. We don't ever actually interface with an ssh prompt on our servers
