This is bigger than one of these servers. Book a call and we'll size it with you.
Railyard Free plan: 1 server plus a database server and 3 apps. Hetzner prices are in euros, before VAT. We count €1 as $1.20 so the comparison doesn't flatter us.
How we size it: the app server gets the memory of all your dynos plus Redis plus 1 GB of headroom. The database server gets at least your Postgres plan's memory and storage.
