My AWS setup was costing ~$500/month running:
2 EC2 instances
– Snapchain node
– Mini apps backend (FastAPI, Postgres, Vector DB)
I switched to a Raspberry Pi 5 setup:
- 16GB RAM
- 2TB external SSD (partitioned)
- 128GB SD card
- $400 one-time cost, no monthly fees
- Running on existing home internet + power (no added cost)
It a really lightweight setup.
If I ever need more compute, I can even add my older Pi 4 to the pool, it wasn’t strong enough to run Snapchain on its own, but it’s perfect for offloading smaller services.
Thanks to
@vrypan.eth for inspiring me to use compute power I had sitting in the back of my closet.
