I can give you an example of one cluster than I use for personal stuff:

- 3 masters with 3 cores and 4 GB of RAM each - load balancer for the masters (for the Kubernetes API) - 3 workers with faster AMD CPUs and 4 cores/8GB of RAM - around 200GB of storage in persistent volumes

I think it costs around 60-70 euros per month total! I can't remember the exact amount because I have many things with Hetzner and do tests creating and deleting stuff all the time so my bill is rather long lol.

Hetzner is very cheap, but I can voice for the performance and reliability as well. It's a very good provider and I highly recommend them. Now they even have 2 locations in the USA!

That’s cost-effective! I’ve been toying with the idea of running a personal distributed system that’s not serverless to just hack around and Hetzner seems approachable going by your experience.

Definitely. I have been using them for years and I still can't understand how they can offer such a good service at their prices, considering how much the competition charges.

Nice price. Are those dedicated servers? Or just "cloud" (standard or dedicated vcpu?)?

Cloud servers with standard shared cores. They perform really well
