     1.4+* AWS usage
     1.5+We're leveraging AWS for some of our public web servers for now. It's
     1.6+really not realistic to expect that my home desktop and spotty Comcast
     1.7+internet can serve any production workflow. What it /is/ capable of is
     1.8+a private VPN, which can communicate with AWS and other cloud VPN
     1.9+depots via WireGuard.
    1.10+
    1.11+I currently use Google Domains for nas-t.net, otom8.dev, and
    1.12+rwest.io - but that business is now owned by squarespace, so I would
    1.13+rather move it to Route53.
    1.14+
    1.15+We have archlinux ec2 image builds [[https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_Linux_AMIs_for_Amazon_Web_Services][here]] and [[https://gitlab.com/anemos-io/archlinux-ec2][here]] - only half work and not
    1.16+maintained, but it's a start. I'm not even sure if I should stick with
    1.17+arch or cave and use Ubuntu or AWS Linux. We can serve the static
    1.18+services with little cost, the only big spender will be the heptapod
    1.19+instance which requires a larger instance and some workers.
    1.20+
    1.21+We'll try to keep the cost at or around $30/month.
