This is like the 5th iteration of that darn diagram, and I still can't quite get it right. The other comments are correct, the underlying setup isn't that complicated, and it wouldn't be too tricky to build it for another cloud, since all that's really happening is a Python script reading a NetCDF file. The real perk to building everything using a server-less approach was that everything scaled down to 1 user (me), and then has scaled up beautifully as more people have signed up. The monthly bill isn't great, but has been manageable through donations so far. I'm handling about 10 million API calls/ month, so lots of Lambda invocations, but they're all thankfully very short with tiny outbound data transfer totals, and luckily inbound is free. If the costs ever get out of hand is to throttle the request rate down, but there's still a few optimizations I can do on the AWS side that should help (ARM here I come!). |
