Deusu's crawl servers are located at https://www.hosteurope.de/en/Server/Root-Server/ while the website points to his home broadband ISP. Two servers at his specs would be 200 Euro/month total, with 5x more bandwidth than he currently uses. I'd say that's much cheaper that AWS. Of course crawl companies charge more: they run a business, pay system administrators, have more backup and redundancy.
