if i were just using a dataset to store user settings, i could get by with something tiny.
but my problem is that my fun project ideas are usually some variant of "theres a huge dataset, lets build some fun dataviz on it". which is a problem because a) i need a big db to store that giant dataset and b) the db size doesn't scale with usage, so i can't just put it off until later
- lelanthran 1y agoOkay, just how much data are we talking? $5/m droplet + $10/m storage gets you 100GB of storage that you can put a PostgreSQL (or other) DB onto. The storage situation is not quite as expensive as it used to be. https://www.digitalocean.com/products/block-storage https://www.digitalocean.com/products/block-storage
