Digital Ocean does have managed databases now. Looks like it would be about $20 a month for webserver and database.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Vultr doesn't have a managed database, but an instance big enough for both webserver and database might be possible at $10/mo.

Azure doesn't look practical for small deployments.

The status is NOT quo.
Thank you for all of this, Gud. Let us know if we can donate via Jesse to help.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
We pay like $35/month now, I think, so whatever!

Then, I'm thinking Digital Ocean. I think it will be easier to deal with than AWS, especially since you can pay by just banking money in your DO account via paypal.

Hey. New board.
Go digital ocean! They are a cool company and I've been very happy with them.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm fine with paying a little more to avoid Amazon where possible.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ditto what Dana said. I like what I've heard about Digital Ocean.

I created a Buffistas team on Digitial Ocean and invited Jesse so far. If you want an invite, let me know. It should just be people who want/need to deal with the site infrastructure: the webserver proxy, the application server, and the database.
