> Excluding traffic, it costs ~ $100 USD per month

I don't doubt that that's affordable, or cost competitive to AWS, but thats' about as cheap as you can do it, _and_ that's not including traffic. It's pretty much impossible to half that bill.

I excluded the traffic because the price is basically 0. This is internal traffic and a bunch of HTTP requests. It doesn't cost us $3000 a month.
