Honestly, I am also running a server + frontend + DB (mongodb ) on same server 2Core 4gb ram. 80gb storage. which is 7 per month. my app never crossed 80% of my CPU usage. from then I am recommending to use VPS server which doesn't give you crazy email of 100k bill.

No offence but your test doesn't have any relevance, you only loaded the home page. Does it even fetch data form a DB or it only shows static data?
And I don't think the guy with a single VPS is good example either. Does it have the DB and backend on the same VPS? Is his setup fault tolerant, redundant? How does he monitor the server? Does he manage the logs?

[krispibiskit]

Awesome video. Thanks a lot to share your experience and knowledge.

[mattd]

OVH has a cheaper and also more powerful VPS available. Crazy no-one ever talk about OVH.

[hayder]

Does your request will do some processing in the backend? Cuz the benchmark it's depend on what kind of process is doing.

[arunchaudhary]

Can you please do a similar video to show the difference between CPU and GPU? I mean at what point does CPU become unfeasible & we ought to go with a GPU?

[rjtdas]

Great overview, but I found it a bit basic. Could you create a video on building a scalable video transcoder using FFmpeg? It would be great to see best practices for handling high loads, ensuring efficiency, and managing concurrent processing. Thanks!

[xMinasi]

I wonder, how can you actually stress test real app on prod without being considered as dos attacker and getting blocked by server company?

[EdwinMartin]

I’m very curious whether the response time will become (much) lower with 2GB or 4 GB

[vorlabongsithilath]

Could i ask if 6$/m enough to run nextjs app and mysql database or not?

[zakimimit]

Thank you Islem for your video.
Can you do a benchmark video on Render, Railway, Digitalocean and Hostinger so we know which is the better choice, especially when using Docker ?

(I am using Django with celery + React, any advice + which one is better for my situation)

My best regards

[semsomify]

Thanks a lot man! Great video. I've always wondered that but never had a chance to make this test. I really look forward to more complex examples (such as ones with databases, etc.)

[rtorcato]

Vercel must have some server that sits in between the requests for analytics, ddos protection etc. So not really a fair test.

[noriller]

maybe you would need to "warm up" the vercel instance first, because by then the test could already be over or giving that huge delay.

also noticed that the vercel one seems to have taken less time... as if it's accepting more, but then some bottleneck makes all slow down

there are other tools that give more insights, like gatling, there you can start "slow", then "ramp up" and it shows better graphs of when it starts to break down, then if you add some observability tool...

[parkerrex]

Should make a vid on ci pipelines using a vps!

[ChrissyCode]

German hosts, with KVM you can get with 5€ like 2 cores 8gb ram lol

[VincentFulco]

I don't believe levels can run all those businesses on the hardware claimed. mad props to him but the business risk to one or all of his sites, if something gets f-ed up are way too great. It sounds like ancient dev lore at this point.

[agentbayabas]

Please make another video with database having backend to test it out

[thebahrimedia]

2:10 don't use gmail. Use a business email

[gamingwolf]

I am the first comment too in last video, what a record, so interesting, can you do another video with 20$ vps ? I am interesting in this price no more 😂
And can you explain how to start getting more valuable jobs ?
Thank you my freind
