> With 64gb ram we have around $50 month on hetzner yes.

A single box on Hetzner is by far not comparable to, say, using a managed service as AWS RDS. It's not even apples to oranges, and more of apples to freshly-squeezed orange juice served by a buttler. Think about it: do you get any form of fault tolerance with your single box?

Thats why I am saying that $50/ month is way off. The price for that would be much higher

Ah yes I agree, sorry for not being clearer. I wanted to add on to what you said.

Even though I'm a big fan of Hetzner and a happy customer for years, it's important to know what we're buying and be mindful of what we're not having as a tradeoff.
