i might just give up and see how much i can cram on one t2.medium or something on aws

@cnc because that's your sample?

@starbreaker the same thing you do for schedules too? :P

@Vann the one thing texas gets right

for all i talk about things, i really don't actually know anything lol

how the heck do people even estimate how much server they need?

@bea a lot of these container managers come with app routers that can get your Host header and proxy you to the app container you want. that doesn't work for things that aren't HTTP.

also: nobody designs for routing app traffic that isn't HTTP. that's kind of really annoying.

@nightpool it wouldn't be accessible in the traditional way in this case because sadly it is a huge pain to route traffic that isn't HTTP/S with these tools here

it also needs a volume but those databases aren't very large.

I wonder how many MU*s one could run on today's machines. and if there'd be much interest in that kind of thing

it now lives on port 80 and can benefit from TLS and better discoverability

thought of a clever/dumb hack for putting MU*s up on web app servers.

just write a little node app with some clientside code to be a terminal, and some serverside code to proxy your traffic into the MU* that is sitting on an internal port

@jamey dokku does look like the way to go. i was thinking, like, security updates. i know ubuntu can just automatically fetch those.

@bea idk, those prices get pretty steep for me pretty quick

@bea aws is so expensive for what you get tho

i think what i really want is just a bare metal server somewhere, but with automated updates, containers for app services, and DNS and SSL certs taken care of without me having to do work

that'll teach me to try for anything better than setting up everything by hand over ssh

@bea always ok :3
