Finished building a proof of concept serverless nostr relay this weekend (docs to follow).

This is the nostpy relay redeployed as a local-read, global-write multi-region serverless web application backed by a RDS Postgresql instance and Dynamo DB tables to manage the websocket connections.

This is the first draft, still looking to make another of changes and experiment with some other architecture. Of course the original host/container deployment is quicker but this was really fun to build and I'm looking to spend my time working towards relay optimization and high availability deployments.

I just wanna relay notes to nostriches over the world, quickly.

Looks expensive from the first glance, given how much data relays consume in general. But I am excited nonetheless 🐶🐾🫂🎉🎉🎉

Yeah this absolutely has the potential to become a really expensive project. I have a number of monitors setup so I don't end up with any surprise AWS bills like I have many times before.

So far at pretty low volume, this costs only a few $ a month to run in multiple regions.
