Does anyone have suggestions for running OBS in the cloud?

I have a project that is designed to run 24/7 and it would be really nice if I could use a cloud server instead of a computer on my home network.

I have it all set up... OBS in Docker with k8s templates. Just need to find an affordable online option.

Depending on what you stream or trying to achieve, just get a Windows/Linux VPS and set up everything via RDP/VNC like you would on your own box. That's what I did for a "twitch plays" channel that was up for about a year.

While OBS will run virtualized, you will get a massive performance hit if no GPU is available and everything is done in software rendering. And GPU-enabled cloud servers are quite expensive.

This has indeed been my experience. It seems to be one of those uncommon situations where a physical server is more desirable than a cloud server.
