Full Version: Begginer - How to choose a server to run my Python script with MongoDB?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I've run my Python script on my local desktop. It mainly builds a dataset by scraping data from a few websites, and saves the data to my local MongoDB.

I decided to move my app to a server so I don't have to keep my desktop running 24/7. It's basically Python + MongoDB hosting I need.

Which options do I have? Are there any free solutions? How will I be able to access my app?

I'm mainly interested in a cheap solution, as it's just a simple app running with 2-3 different processes. Ideally, I'd be able to connect via SSH and monitor/re-configure the app.
You can look for cloud computing: https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/
Or you rent a regular virtual Server to run your application. A dedicated server is too expensive.
Just pay attention of memory and traffic.
