Ask HN: Should I use my old computer instead of cloud?
I’ve got an old (but still not bad for dev needs) quad code with 16gb ram. This is quite a lot for running various small containerized services. However I’m wondering if this is considered a bad practice.
Cloud machines for something like this would be >$100 a month.
What security measures and other considerations would I need to keep in mind if I go this route?
For example I have a Emailer service that sends updates to users (needs to connect to my remote hosted DB)
