Their offering seems handy based on the dashboards and tools they provide that gather and automate many features that would otherwise be time consuming.
Looking at how fast the resource demands scaled on my dinky test instance, a successful instance with a decent user base would quickly start costing a few hundred dollars a month. But their costs aren’t super high compared to unmanaged hosting.
I am actually happy this service exists because it means they see a market here.
If you are gung ho about running an instance, the automation and dashboards alone might save enough hassle to make it worth looking into further. Thanks for sharing that info.
