Nostr Web Client

So… if I wanna run multiple private community relays (5-50 users each) but imma start with just one private (possibly 10x larger) relay, how many could I run in a single VPS? 8GB limit on DBs seems tiny…would that apply cumulatively to ALL the DBs for the relays in that machine? If I wrap each relay in a container… I’m still foggy on how the DNS pointing works within the VPS. Thanks.

You can start with 8 gb on one machine in different db/dir locations. Most providers allow the vps to upgrade to more ram or disc storage later.

So like -> [foo.domain.com] on nginx{} >localhost:5555 and [fee.domain.com] to strfy2 on [localhost:6666], a strfry router without own database on [localhost:7777] ...on the same dir location and/or another ...and so on and on... use nginx proxy/upstream/load balancing function..all as you like.

u: would that apply cumulatively to ALL the DBs for the relays in that machine?

Yes!

As far as the ui is concerned, basic authentication is certainly enough at the beginning (maybe everything also with nginx). A little more sec+ with fail2ban or IP restriction. A nice interface around it can come later, or embed it in an already existing one. Gradually expand more and more, depending on demand. This is the most cost-efficient variant.
