The intelligent thing to do to meet the need for what is almost 100% static content, would have been to get a hetzner dedicated box which gives you unlimited traffic at 1gbps, then pay for cloudflare pro and institute hard long running caching rules, then the vast majority of the server bandwidth and requests come off of the box and hit cloudflare’s edge, which generally allows for unlimited caching.

Don’t give away the blueprint! Hetzner you say? Not digitalocean (I know, the Omarchy link) or Vultr? Cloudflare edge is a fine use of this, though even basic nginx level caching can handle this. Heck, if it’s vercel they can still use some caching in front of it to cool off the use.

Hetzner dedicated (not cloud) usually gives you unlimited (reasonable) bandwidth at 1Gbps And yeah the point of the cache is less about the burn on the box of the request but more the capped bandwidth at the machine level, whereas content being served from the cdn can scale to a shit ton of users and only comes from your box once within the cache expiry time permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] damnthefilibuster@lemmy.world 1 point 6 days ago (4 children) Yeah but isn’t the max monthly something absurd?

So if they’re blowing a TB or more a day they’d pay out the ass for raw bandwidth at per MB rates past the initial 1TB from cloud providers, and a single box would have trouble keeping up. Cloudflare doesn’t bill separately for bandwidth, and since hetzner gives you unlimited for dedicated, it would have room to seed the cloudflare cache and then cloudflare could serve 100s of TB of bandwidth per month. All in all if set up correctly you could go with a hetzner ax41, and cloudflare businees, for a total cost of ~$270 per month permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] damnthefilibuster@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (2 children) “Terabytes”??
