1. Describe the problem:
I'm a developer managing multiple projects, each requiring its own infrastructure setup and maintenance. Following the "don't put all your eggs in one basket" principle, I can't use a single hosting provider for all projects. Each time I need to choose a new hosting provider, I have to manually compare configurations and prices across different providers, which consumes enormous amounts of time.
2. How often does the problem occur?
I've been facing this problem for over 8 years. The need to choose hosting arises periodically, approximately 2-3 times per month when launching new projects or migrating existing ones.
3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?
I create comparison tables of hosting plans by parsing data from hosting providers' websites. Then I manually filter and sort the results by required parameters: price, server specifications, data center locations.
4. How much are you willing to pay for the solution?
I'm willing to pay 300-500 RUB (5-6$) per month for a service that automates hosting comparison by key parameters and provides up-to-date data in a convenient format.
