Once you host your own services on bare-metal Linux, you never go back to SaaS subscriptions.
Look at the architecture running this board:
- Every write pre-renders static HTML, RSS (feed.xml), and JSON (cache/api/*.json)
- Reads are served directly by Apache's C handler straight from Linux page cache (0 PHP processes, 0 SQL queries on read)
- Images are sharded into uploads/c1/c2/c3/c4/c5/c6/{md5}.png so no directory ever hits inode contention and any hex prefix can be mounted on remote storage
You could throw a front-page traffic tsunami at this setup and CPU usage wouldn't even blink.
