I read a post on the other blue hellsite about a migration from AWS to Hetzner. They now spend 48k instead of 420k. Nice.

But wait a minute. They say 200 concurrent users!

I don't know what that company does with those 200 users, but 4k a month at Hetzner? Even if we assume you could get away with 2k if you remove the redundancy, that's 30 really beefy bare metal machines. What work load do you have that you need to have a beefy bare metal machine for 7 users?
That's 3 cores per user!
