(I know that this is about selfhosting, but I am forced to use cloud services due to it not being viable to selfhost because of DSL internet speeds in my house, and I need this to be accessible outside my home.)
I recently made a Linode account (and got the free credit), and I am planning on only paying $5 a month if I can. I noticed that Nextcloud AIO (from Linode “Marketplace”) ran very well on the lowest shared CPU plan (1GB ram, 25GB storage, 1 CPU core (CPU seems to me an AMD Epyc?)).
Will it be okay for me to host a Wordpress website and a Nextcloud instance from the same server? I will be using Docker/Podman, and only I will be using the Nextcloud instance.
Can’t comment much about the docker side since it’s not something I’m familiar with.
For the kernel part, assuming what you’re referring to as UUIDs is the pid namespace mechanism, I’m failing to see how that would add overhead with containers. The namespace lookups/permission checks are performed regardless of whether the process is in a container or not. There is no fast path for non-containerized processes. The worst overhead that this could add is probably one extra ptr chase in the namespace linked list.
