The Hosting Rejection Tour: Render, AWS EC2, Oracle, and How I Ended Up on a €3.29/mo VPS
The article discusses the author's experience with various hosting options for a headless art gallery project. After multiple rejections from services like Render, AWS EC2, and Oracle due to resource limitations, the author ultimately settled on a low-cost VPS solution. The challenges faced highlight the complexities of deploying stateful applications in a serverless environment.
- ▪The author attempted to use Render's free tier but encountered memory limitations that led to an out-of-memory (OOM) kill.
- ▪AWS EC2 was considered next, but the 1 GiB RAM was insufficient for the application's demands, resulting in another OOM kill.
- ▪Oracle's Always Free tier promised significant resources but was ultimately inaccessible due to availability issues.
