[–] tptacek 15y ago ↗ Regarding Redis-To-Go: what am I missing about their pricing scheme? $110/mo for 500 megs? A 500M Slicehost slice, which (it seems to me) is 2 commands (curl and make) away from being a redis server, is $38/mo. And it can do other things!(Seriously: what am I missing?) [–] mrduncan 15y ago ↗ Don't forget: - Installing the OS - Securing the server - Setting up backups - Monitoring None of these are particularly hard, it just depends on how much you value your time to set them up. [–] tptacek 15y ago ↗ I wondered whether that was the value prop, because 80% of that stuff you get "for free" with Slicehost and Linode. Backups, maybe?
