> Too Many Users: Sorry, but this application has exceeded its quota of concurrent users. Please try again later. I don't understand why people pay a premium to host on Digital Ocean and provide such experiences to users. I'd bet $1,000 that, with what they're paying Digital Ocean to return this message, they could have an 8-core server with at least 32 Gb of RAM on Hetzner, for instance, which could certainly accommodate at least 20x the traffic.

Digital Ocean is incredibly cheap, I pay $10 a month for a droplet with SSDs. The lowest tier is $4 a month. https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing >I'd bet $1,000 that, with what they're paying Digital Ocean to return this message, they could have an 8-core server with at least 32 Gb of RAM on Hetzner, for instance, which could certainly accommodate at least 20x the traffic. I'll be expecting that check in the mail.

        Just admit you were wrong. >I'd bet $1,000 that, with what they're paying Digital Ocean to return this message, they could have an 8-core server with at least 32 Gb of RAM on Hetzner, for instance, which could certainly accommodate at least 20x the traffic.

I don't think this is a problem with Digital Ocean. Some googling makes me think this is a configuration issue with Shiny Server: https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server/issues/326 https://github.com/rstudio/shiny-server/issues/326

  https://www.shinyapps.io https://www.shinyapps.io Pricing page mentions something about 'active hours', and if you're on 'free' or 'starter' tier, no more users can use the app until next month. Their pricing page doesn't mention anything about 'concurrent' users, but that error message might just be a legacy holdover?

Just a static site, right? Slap it in AWS S3, optionally with Cloudfront. 50 cents a month for the Route 53. Free upto the limit. Pretty cheap beyond that. Probably under $20/yr even with some high traffic spikes for a site like the assessment.
