This is why our BYOC pricing is less than our Dedicated Hosting pricing, as the costs listed for BYOC are only what you pay for ScaleGrid and don’t include your hardware costs. While this is a good way to get a rough estimate, your monthly cloud costs will indeed vary based on the amount of backups performed and your data transfer activity.

Edge servers are the middle ground – more compute power than a mobile device, but with latency of just a few ms. Since we’re talking about mobile applications, we have to assume a changing environment over time, including the possibility of losing internet connectivity altogether. The Mobile Web Worker (MWW) System.
