Ask HN: Windows server hosting for memory heavy rendering application?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14739428Does anyone have any good suggestions of affordable decent Windows Server hosting with 32GB+ RAM? All the obvious hosts charge a ridiculous amount and can't seem to keep up with the demand either.
Perhaps I'm being unreasonable? I run a service that needs to render lots of videos using After Effects and Media Encoder and so far I've not been able to find a server under $200/m that can keep up with 6-9 renders going on at the same time.
Would I be better off having many small servers running 1-2 instead? I've recently taken over this service and this is the main bottleneck so any suggestions would be much appreciated.
