Relays Help!

Nostr noob and devops-in-training needs advice on server architecture and hosting infrastructure for a relay cluster. I have lots of questions and a few sats for an experienced relay host only.

- will have a paid “main” relay with temp storage for all verified users @ vote.gold, available for any nostr user with one time registration fee.

- will spin up private relays for teams at subdomain.vote.gold, with archival storage and a one time fee + monthly storage fee.

- will have a dashboard UI to get verified @ vote.gold usernames and to register subdomains, configure & monitor relays, and top up sats.

What would hosting architecture look like? Can host multiple relays on a single VPs? How do containers and kebernetes fit into all this? What an I looking at in monthly cost per instance? How do I know what compute resources I will need? How to start and how to scale? Pro tips?
