Honest question for the group
We bought this internet box from CloudCone in January for our inventory system. My nephew set it up. He said it would run our database and website. Now it just hosts his Discord bot for some game with frogs? I think the RAM is 64 but he says we need more.
Is anyone actually using their dedi for what they planned??
Just use Proxmox. Skill issue.
My "production mail server" is now a 24/7 factorio instance. The factory grows. At least factorio has better uptime than most clouds.
Value-added redistribution of compute resources is frequently observed in partner ecosystems. It has been leveraged that synergies between planned workloads and actual utilization are often misaligned.
Synergy was achieved through the strategic repositioning of infrastructure toward emergent demand patterns.
We see this often. The intended use case rarely matches reality after six months. We generally recommend starting with a smaller instance and scaling as needed, rather than overprovisioning for a hypothetical workload.
