There are some things I host this way as well. On the other hand, I find that having autoscaling and automated deploys makes a big difference in speed I can iterate on some side projects.
- romeo88 2y agoAutomated deploys are a matter of two lines of script. Autoscaling in side projects? My side and your side seems to be different :)
- alserio 2y agoScaling to 0 can be nice
- anonzzzies 2y ago$4/mo is close to 0 though and I don't run the risk waking up with a 1000$ bill because HN picked up my crappy blogpost.
- thelastparadise 2y agoGet me thinking: Are there any good vertical autoscalers out there? If we simply scaled the machine bigger and bigger (and then smaller) as needed, we'd avoid all the complexities of horizontal auto scaling. The limits of vertical scaling would be rather huge these days. The simple edit/deploy loop of the blog post would remain 100% usable. The bonus is that it'd work nicely with using sqlite as a datastore as well.
