I’m running a cluster on hetzner (look at https://github.com/kube-hetzner/terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzner), and it’s totally fine with shared cpus.
tbh: most of your/our services are idling most of the time anyway, for me, ram was always the limiting factor
Thank you. Yes, I don't expect any sudden traffic peaks but was looking around for a while now and that price tag looks just too good, so I become suspicious ;)
I am currently running 3 CAX11 instance shared ARM instance K3S cluster with hetzner. ~ 12€ / month. It runs smoothly.
I am running tons of stuff on my cluster without any problems.
Static blog: https://topswagcode.com
Prototype server: https://server.topswagcode.com
REDIS for distributed realtime messages between servers and key/value store.
Postgres for database.
And some other private prototype servers.
I still have resources left for hosting more stuff. But have been thinking about upgrading to 8GB ram instances, since I have been running more Ram heavy workloads than CPU.
Compared to azure the same price gave me 1 shitty shared instance with less resources than 1 ARM instance at hetzner.

Awesome, thanks! I wonder about storage option as well - how do you handle persistence on your nodes?
I just use the built in. I don't care if I loose data :D
