What are your infra costs ?

Do you run on k8s or vms ?

[tropic sun]

I run Azure container apps

@orchid bane

reading the docs i think its superior

what do you run

[orchid bane]

how much do you pay a month ?

[tropic sun]

https://tenor.com/view/yu-gi-oh-yugi-mutou-anime-manga-trading-card-gif-19981888

container apps is free to start off with we havent had any heavy use. yet

[orchid bane]

It depend but for small non HA single node k8s cluster 4vCPU 8GB

[tropic sun]

azure container apps is serverless

have you considerd oracle cloud

you will get a free tier

[orchid bane]

but you pay for it later

what is the long term cost ?

24 months ?

[tropic sun]

i dont have any sample data to share but i assume it is rather cheap

maybe if you can prove me wrong

[orchid bane]

okey i host it for 7.31 euro

month

and this is a static cost

[tropic sun]

would you say you save alot of money over ec2

[orchid bane]

depending on size wont change

[tropic sun]

we moved from ec2

[orchid bane]

yes

aws is expensive

i run on hetzner

[tropic sun]

okay tbanks for the information i agree

[orchid bane]

You have regions in US

and EU so its enough

[tropic sun]

Is germany the nearest for eu

[orchid bane]

depending on scale

[tropic sun]

we are london

[orchid bane]

So you have it in frankfurt

https://www.hetzner.com/cloud

but i could run my setup on any vm with ssh access

so multicloud out of the box

depending on scale i could run the cluster in different modes

[tropic sun]

that does seem good i can maybe consider it for redis ect

i do think serverlss is important at scale

[orchid bane]

i run redis and psql on a single node for non critical and small scale shops its enough

CDN more important

but CF for a good tier

[tropic sun]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-apps/overview

[orchid bane]

Just someone elses server i prefare self hosted much cheaper

[tropic sun]

we use vercel for sites

and this for backend

so we can be double serverless

as for redis / db we think this will be in constant use

[orchid bane]

so what is the end cost ?

[tropic sun]

no clients yet 😢

but in theory it works well

[orchid bane]

This diagrams looks expensive

As i said my whole prod setup is 7.31 eur/month

and run on ARM64 good performance and cheaper ndoes

nodes

similar size on AWS is 120 $ XD

https://instances.vantage.sh/aws/ec2/m7g.xlarge?region=us-east-1&os=linux&cost_duration=monthly&reserved_term=Standard.noUpfront

[orchid bane]

Its a good setup but expensive :/

this is a kind of setup you would run for a corpo or startup that want to burn money 😄

[hazy totem]

@orchid bane we run containers on AWS, for awhile we had free credit for being a startup, but it is pricier that some competitors might be. We are working on a way to run multiple Medusa instances on the same pod which would enable us to scale up with much less cost.

[orchid bane]

why AWS ? its just extra cost right now

[hazy totem]

We have invested quite a bit into our infrastructure and have clients paying for it, so it's not quite worth it for us to spend the time to move right now.

[orchid bane]

use single node k8s nodes on hetzner

ah sue if they are paying its good 😉
